Zombie Hand Mushroom

One day, Fendy Sutandio of Orimath blog looked at his garden and found this strange "Zombie Hand" fungus. It does look like a zombie’s hand digging itself out of its grave!

    Could you imagine talking a walk outside at night and seeing that thing on the side of the road?

    Is it wrong that my very first thought was "is it edible?"?

    My first thought was can I eat it too! Also, what will happen to me if I do.

    I want to know what it is, any mycologists out there?

    I love how it appears to be emerging from a ruffly white lace sleeve. Very Victorian, as if it were the zombiefied remains of a frail young girl who wasted away from consumption.

    Yeah, I can imagine seeing it and thinking not much of it, either. It doesn't look real, so there's nothing to get excited over.
