The James T. Callow Folklore Archive

Among the landscapers who plow snow in the winter
there is a legend of the snow snakes. You never see or hear
them but you know when they've bit you. They slip up your
pant leg and bite you in the balls. Then you start to shake
and hurt all over like you're on the verge of gettin'
frostbite. Snow snakes commonly live in the coldest places
especially where the wind is the fiercest.
