Bird is the word, at least duringMegyn Kelly’s Halloween episode of her SiriusXM podcast!

During a live taping ofThe Megyn Kelly Showat the 50-year-old journalist’s Connecticut home, an unidentified bird crashed the host’s interview withGhost Huntersexecutive producerJason Hawes.

On Friday, theSettle for Moreauthor told her Twitter followers about the hilarious, yet nerve-wracking moment, writing, “Still. Laughing. About. This.”

At first, Kelly appeared in disbelief of the in-studio interruption, questioning out loud, “Is this a set-up?” while she laughed at the unbelievable situation.

The camera then panned to the host’s visibly panicked assistant, who reassured her boss, “There is a legit bird in here, right now!”

The former Fox News anchor proceeded to tell her assistant, “Go get Doug, this is his job,” referring to her husband of 13 years, Douglas Brunt.

As her interview with Hawes continued, Kelly proceeded to ask the paranormal investigator what they should do about the unwelcome visitor. He matter-of-factly responded, “Hopefully, catch it.”

“We’ve had situations where owls have been in the building with us, bats have landed on our hats. Right now, I just ate duck,” Hawes jokingly added.

Kelly also suggested the idea of a paranormal entity paying her a visit during her Halloween-themed episode.

“We’re doing this ghost show … as we’re talking to him [Hawes] about the paranormal, we hear these noises down the hall,” she said. “Jason, come on. It’s at least possible someone from the other world popped in to say, ‘I’m listening.'”

Hawes replied, “Of course, but it’s also possible that this thing got in through some open window.”
