Another pseudo-autobiographical novel by Cracked Editor Jason Pargin, This Book Is Full Of Spiders: Seriously, Dude, Don't Touch It is the second story about Author Avatar David Wong and the sequel to John Dies at the End.Still living in [Undisclosed] with John (who (probably) didn't die at the end), things seem to be going fine until Dave wakes up with a large spider-monster injecting him with paralyzing venom and trying to burrow into his skull. After a narrow escape wherein a police officer is infected, a massive outbreak occurs, and John "accidentally" texts photos of his genitals to Dave twice, things somehow get worse. Despite the amount of brain-hugging spiders, gruesome deaths, grotesque monsters and nausea/Nightmare Fuel, things get pretty damn funny.Released on October 2nd 2012, This Book Is Full Of Spiders currently has a book trailer and shares JDATE's site.A third book, titled What The Hell Did I Just Read: A Novel of Cosmic Horror, was released October 3rd, 2017. |

comment |
Genre Savvy: As with the previous book, John and Dave frequently anticipate horror tropes, though they're not always right. John flat-out refuses to get onto the elevator with Anna because she's a Creepy Child and doesn't want to be Alone with the Psycho. Instead, he races the elevator and positions himself so that he can blast her the moment the elevator door opens in case she transformed into a monster on the way up. It turns out that she is a monster, but she's not a threat. |

Unreliable Narrator |
| This Book Is Full of Spiders: Seriously, Dude, Don't Touch It / int_1869b4b1 |
comment |
Unreliable Narrator: An internet post from Daryl Lombard, Munch's survivalist father, claims that he gave a self-righteous and long-winded speech to John about why he didn't deserve to partake in Daryl's emergency supplies. The real confrontation, described earlier, didn't go down like that at all. Daryl's extreme embellishment of the event also casts doubts on his claims to having an encyclopedic knowledge of practical survival skills. In the end it's revealed that Lance Falconer's entire characterization is made up at the insistence of the real man, who is apparently not nearly as cool. David lampshades it by claiming that Lance does a few humiliating things right after demanding that David not make him look stupid. Dave also indicates he's writing the craziest possible explanation of events, which casts much of the story into suspicion. |

Poor Communication Kills |
| This Book Is Full of Spiders: Seriously, Dude, Don't Touch It / int_1c445e86 |
comment |
Poor Communication Kills: Thankfully nobody actually dies, but Amy (in a safe area) takes a picture of the news video of Dave's house burning on her cell phone and texts him. Dave sees the photo, thinks she's at his house, and immediately heads back into the danger zone to rescue her. Repeated again when John believes that Dave has been killed and does not tell Amy. This leads to Amy becoming extremely frustrated when John is in no hurry to get back to the quarantine zone and rescue Dave—she doesn't know that John believes there isn't any more Dave to rescue—so she calls the CDC hotline on herself and then groups up with Josh and his wannabe-action-hero friends. This accidentally gets John kidnapped (when he goes to look for Amy, the goons grab him instead) and contributes to the asylum massacre (Amy's speech about how Josh is all talk seems fairly accurate, so he might well have stayed all talk if she hadn't shamed him into taking action). |

Cruel and Unusual Death |
| This Book Is Full of Spiders: Seriously, Dude, Don't Touch It / int_1e584efa |
comment |
Cruel and Unusual Death: Curing a case of brain spiders is either "finding out what a chainsaw tastes like", or a bullet in the brain followed by having face-melting acids poured into the wound/mouth. Carlos has a habit of killing his victims by eviscerating people who sit down outside. It later turns out he's a decent guy that can see who is infected, and simply gives them an arguably preferable death of having organs swiftly torn out (as opposed to slow-death by spider possession, transformation and gradual decay). |

Wrong Genre Savvy: The zombie survivalist hipsters. Watching Resident Evil and Night of the Living Dead (1968) thirty thousand times, unfortunately, doesn't translates to being an effective zombie slayer. They kill a lot of innocent people and get killed by the monsters because they have no damn clue of how these monsters actually function, no idea of how to differentiate infected from non-infected, and Storming the Castle doesn't works if you have no idea of where the castle actually is. |

Hollywood Hacking: Averted. When Amy needs to get into REPER's computers, she starts with a Boring, but Practical real hacking trick: see if anybody wrote their password down. She figures that any sufficiently complicated security system probably involves so many different passwords that the employees can't memorize all of them and have to keep a list somewhere, and a quick search of the nearest desk proves her right. |

Deus ex Machina |
| This Book Is Full of Spiders: Seriously, Dude, Don't Touch It / int_3fca462c |
comment |
Weaponized with The Fur Gun, which apparently materialises or edits whatever the wielder wants or needs. Just as the monsters close in and it seems like the conspiracy will go off without the hitch, a Deus ex Machina is literally invoked when one of the main characters' obsession with a cheap kitschy painting of Jesus becomes a Godlike divine smiter firing laser death rays from its eyes after it's struck by the Fur Gun in desperation. |

Blatant Lies: A in-universe post taken from Free Republic describes a confrontation between John and Munch's Dad, from Munch's Dad's perspective. He claims to have said things he clearly didn't and gotten responses that not only John didn't say but probably would never say, in an attempt to make himself sound better and John sound worse. |

Body Horror: The spiders, which burrow into the victim's brain, before permanently attaching themselves to the host's brain and altering their nervous system and body, making the only cure death. Except, the Spiders turn out to be sentient and point out that a lot of humans have them inside them without any adverse effects. In short, making Spider-Brain not a big deal. A quality our antiheroes aren't quite sure how to deal with. |

Affably Evil: Dr. Tennet is always extremely polite and professional, to the point of supplying coffee and tea during his villain monologue. He explains that he honestly thinks that he's doing the best thing for humanity. The closest he gets to being mean-spirited is calling John a manchild for, in Tennet's opinion, refusing to accept what he believes is a good idea in uniting America under fear of the 'other' by way of a zombie threat. |

Chainsaw Good: John asserts that only "cure" to spider infection involves "finding out what a chainsaw tastes like". He later uses a chainsaw to decapitate an infected Frankie. John's enthusiasm for chainsaws is a bit of a Call-Back to David's assertion in the previous book about how chainsaws make the absolute dumbest weapons. |

Painful Transformation: When people "monster out", their anatomy typically distorts and twists until their limbs turn into weapons. Considering an infected Franky seemingly resists the parasite long enough to whisper something important to Dave, it's safe to assume the host is aware through the process. |

Zombie Apocalypse: Discussed and thoroughly deconstructed. The public is quick to jump onto the idea that a zombie apocalypse has occurred, and all sorts of people who have fantasized about it occurring spring into action. Some are geeky horror fans, like the people who try to help Amy, while others are self-important survivalists, like Munch's father Daryl. |

Genghis Gambit: "Them"'s partial reasoning for causing an otherworldly zombie outbreak is in uniting America and the world against a threat of outsiders - in this case, the possibility your neighbor is now a mutant brain-eating zombie infected by spiders. Unfortunately, this both means importing in extradimensional monsters who are fully aware of their formerly-human status and is also about using paranoia to divide and conquer humanity... ...and take over the world in case the monsters spread. |

Heroic Sacrifice: According to Marconi, a sacrifice is required to stop the infection once and for all. Dave thinks it's him. At the end it turns out to be Molly, who jumps in front of a bullet headed for Amy while time is frozen at the climax. The footage of Molly's death and Amy crying over her make the world realize that Undisclosed isn't full of infected as everyone had thought. |

Reckless Gun Usage |
| This Book Is Full of Spiders: Seriously, Dude, Don't Touch It / int_7d34f23a |
comment |
Survivalists and people with a fetish for the apocalypse are made targets, regardless of what their particular flavor is. The zombie apocalypse fanboys are a bunch of clueless geeks who have no idea how to properly handle their weapons, and in the end accomplish nothing more than killing a bunch of innocent people before getting effortlessly massacred by the real monsters. The Free Republic guy likes to pose as a survivalist to his online buddies, but the encounter with him shows him as a posturing fake. The militias going around town trying to take care of the problem on their own probably did nothing but kill innocent people or each other, considering that they racked up a body count in the hundreds and the infection was never bigger than about 70 people. And the bit where David sees what happens when the US Army takes on the monsters makes it pretty clear that the idea of the Army being overrun by zombies, or ordinary people succeeding in surviving and thriving against a threat that the Army's resources fail against is really pretty laughable. |

The Alcoholic: John is revealed to go into withdrawal when he hasn't had a drink in a while. Also, when he first fires the "fur gun," it makes a beer larger, implying that he was thinking about having a big drink at that moment. |

| This Book Is Full of Spiders: Seriously, Dude, Don't Touch It / int_7fbb2a3 |
comment |
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Burning down the house with the spider eggs in it is exactly the wrong thing to do. Falconer realizes this immediately. Dr. Tennet points out during the third act how several of their attempts at saving the day actually made things worse in the long run. Amy is just trying to get to her boyfriend, and she does try to rein them in, but talking Josh's group into actually doing to Undisclosed turns out...badly. Suffice to say that more heavily-armed people ready to shoot anybody who twitches funny is pretty much the last thing the place needs—still less so when those people have absolutely no real-world gun experience. (At least the locals forming an angry mob don't accidentally point their firearms at each others' heads). |

Deconstruction: Of Zombie Apocalypse fantasies. A bunch of zombie movie fans leap at the chance to enact all their detailed plans for surviving the apocalypse, only to discover that they're completely unprepared and die horribly after killing dozens of innocent people. Dr. Marconi notes that zombies are the perfect villain: an enemy that can be destroyed without any guilt, since the enemy is already dead. Also not only does the military effectively contain the infection, but do so in a relatively short timespan, with the entire story taking place over only a week or so. |

I Did What I Had to Do/Just Following Orders: Dr. Tennet's justification for trying to nuke Undisclosed; namely, it isn't his concern why, he's simply ordering the destruction of Undisclosed because it needs to be done. He and several other antagonists see themselves as trying to prevent the apocalypse, protecting the world from the horrific consequences of incompetent idealists and self-interested fools. Their relationship with The Man Behind the Man is nuanced. |

Take That! |
| This Book Is Full of Spiders: Seriously, Dude, Don't Touch It / int_b53077b3 |
comment |
Take That!: It's an easy shot, but the way in which Daryl's post on Free Republic conveniently edits his encounter with John is almost identical to how a lot of outside observers figure that the regulars on that forum edit everything that happens to them. Survivalists and people with a fetish for the apocalypse are made targets, regardless of what their particular flavor is. The zombie apocalypse fanboys are a bunch of clueless geeks who have no idea how to properly handle their weapons, and in the end accomplish nothing more than killing a bunch of innocent people before getting effortlessly massacred by the real monsters. The Free Republic guy likes to pose as a survivalist to his online buddies, but the encounter with him shows him as a posturing fake. The militias going around town trying to take care of the problem on their own probably did nothing but kill innocent people or each other, considering that they racked up a body count in the hundreds and the infection was never bigger than about 70 people. And the bit where David sees what happens when the US Army takes on the monsters makes it pretty clear that the idea of the Army being overrun by zombies, or ordinary people succeeding in surviving and thriving against a threat that the Army's resources fail against is really pretty laughable. |

Break Them by Talking: Lampshaded. When Dr Tennet insists that he's one of the good guys, Dave wonders why, if that's the case, he's delivering a villain monologue. |

Invisible to Normals: The spiders, which prompts the CDC to assume an airborne, flesh-eating disease is what's causing people to get torn apart. Even Frankie doesn't realize he has a spider crawling on him until it's crawling down his throat and burrowing into his skull. |

Aliens, when the leader of the Hipster Zombie-Hunters says, "They're coming out of the goddamn walls!" John stops time and explains that it's like Saved by the Bell, apparently referring to Zach Morris's Breaking the Fourth Wall moments. |

Undead Child: Averted. The parasite responsible for the zombie outbreak is apparently unable to infect children. A wrench is thrown into things when John and Dave meet Anna, a little girl quarantined with the rest of them. Sure enough, she's actually a monster. This is a significant departure from an earlier draft of the book, where the villains tried to take advantage of the psychological implications of this trope by making an elementary school the intended epicenter of the outbreak, which would have led to this memorable line: |

Death by Genre Savviness: Despite Amy pointing out that liking zombie media does not make one a zombie expert, the hipsters still charge the Ffirth Asylum and all die horribly. Averted with Amy, who, despite realizing This Is Real Life and they'll die if they enter the Ffirth Asylum, is physically unscathed in the event. Also invoked with TJ who, after lampshading that the Black Dude Dies First, dies first in the Ffirth Asylum Massacre. |

The Fourth Wall Will Not Protect You: Amy didn't lose her hand in a car crash. A Shadow Man deletes her hand by walking through it, and reality retroactively rearranges itself to explain the loss with a mundane event. As Amy has been one-handed for the whole series, the Shadow Men's powers not only retconned the book's reality, but ours as well. |

Dr. Tennet calls John one (accurate), and acts as if Falconer is one as well, though The Reveal that the very traits that led to Falconer seeming immature are fabricated makes it questionable how much of this scene is to be believed. |
