Shunshroom

Mushrooms

Approximate size: 5-9 inches
Seasonal Growth: Late spring to summer


Looking similar to the Speckled Shroom, the Shunshoom is NOT something you wanna touch or ingest. They are inedible and their spores will do you even more harm. Touching or disturbing this mushroom in any way will release spores that would give you a rash in the shape of a curse mark! This of course is not a real curse, but it has fooled others in the past. These mushrooms are often mixed in with Speckled Shrooms, so look carefully before you pick them, otherwise you'll be blighted with shun spots and many other health hazards.

Can I grow them?
No.

Can I eat them?
These mushrooms are a health hazard in every way, eating them causes severe stomach aches and fever, inhaling the spores can give you a nasty cough, and any spores that make contact with your skin with give you itchy rashes called shun spots which can get you shunned from the community if they don't look closely enough. Interacting with this shroom in any way is very ill-advised.
