I woke up feeling like something was biŧing my upper back. Above my mattress, I found this. My whole family has been staring at it for an hour, but we still can’t figure out what it is. Does anyone know what this could be? Check the first comment for the answer

Should You Worry About More Appearing?
Usually, no. A single insect indoors is most often an accident. Unless you’re keeping infested plants inside or leaving many entry points unsealed, it’s unlikely to become a recurring issue.
The Final Answer
The “cicada with horns” you discovered was most likely a treehopper—a harmless, plant-feeding insect. Its horn-like shape is used for camouflage and protection, not attack. It probably entered your home accidentally through a door, window, plant, or because it was drawn to light.
The best solution is simple: gently move it outside and, if needed, seal small entry points to prevent future visitors. Strange-looking insects are more common than we think—but most are harmless guests, not threats.
So take a breath, appreciate the quiet wonder of nature’s design, and let your unexpected visitor return to the garden where it belongs.
