Torche guitarist Andrew Elstner is being treated for rabies after a bat urinated in his eye last week, reports Pitchfork.
Elstner was in St. Louis at a rustic house built in 1824 where he discovered a trapped bat in one of the rooms. When he turned the lights on the bat began zooming around.
He tells Pitchfork, “As it passed by my head a fourth time at light speed, it managed to piss on my right eye.”
With more treatments to come, Elstner added, “Feel like I’m getting treated for a unicorn bite.”
Rabies cannot be contracted from bat urine.
