Spiders are well-known for the webs they weave and lay as traps for unsuspecting prey. In line with this, fictional spiders and characters associated with them will be cast as witty tricksters and/or deceitful, manipulative schemers with ulterior motives, lying in wait in the shadows and use physical or metaphorical "webs" to outwit their opponents. Other times, they are portrayed as sexy seducers who attempt to lure in unsuspecting prey for the kill — for an extreme example, the term Black Widow is partially derived from a genus of spiders whose females occasionally devour the males after mating. For extra sketchiness, these can be compounded with how some spiders secrete venom (because the usage of toxins is untrustworthy), or the weaving of spider webs can be related to illusion powers. In many portrayals, they are more commonly evil, amoral, or morally ambiguous, and can also be cruel predators on top of being deceitful. Characters of this sort who are Guile Heroes may instead be Friendly Neighborhood Spiders. This trope is Older Than Print. Anansi of West African myth and Iktomi of the Lakota Sioux are two examples of spider trickster figures from oral tradition. Subtrope of The Trickster, and may also overlap with The Chessmaster or The Spymaster. Strategic web usage may also make them a Trap Master or The Strategist. Compare Spiders Are Scary, which is another reason spiders get a bad rap, and Giant Spider, which is usually more terrifying and brute-force-focused than cunning, although they can certainly overlap for pure horror. Characters sporting Arachnid Appearance and Attire or using Projectile Webbing may also be tricksters because of this trope. See also other sneaky animals: Cunning Like a Fox, Rascally Rabbit, Rascally Raccoon, Stealthy Cephalopod (another eight-legged one!) and Those Wily Coyotes. |

Coraline: While the original book describes the Other Mother with various bits of spider imagery, the film adaptation has her turn into a full-blown spider lady as her One-Winged Angel form. Much like a spider's web, the colorful, surreal Other World — as well as its idealized doubles of Coraline's father and her neighbors — are a false illusion crafted by the Other Mother specifically to lure in and trap the eponymous heroine, with the intent of feeding on her like she did to other, less fortunate children in the past. | |

Pathfinder: Grandmother Spider, a deity who usually takes the form of an immense spider, is a goddess of trickery and illusions and an archetypal trickster god, being especially fond of humbling the arrogant and those who benefit from others. Her exploits include tricking the lioness out of her mane, stealing the keys of the cosmos from Asmodeus and agreeing to help another goddess save a powerful mortal empire in exchange for getting three attempts to bring it down. | |

Anansi Boys is about spider trickster Anansi, who's "died", and his two sons, Fat Charlie and Spider, as they come to grips with his legacy. Fat Charlie is only book-smart and has to become more of a Guile Hero over the course of the plot, while Spider is a charming and manipulative trickster, but also incredibly shallow and selfish and turns out to not be a brother born normally but a Superpowered Evil Side split off from Charlie in his youth. | |

Magic: The Gathering features Ravnica, a realm entirely controlled by 10 'guilds', each representing two different colours of the game's five colors of mana, and each of these guilds is responsible for some aspect of Ravnica's function. Among these, the Dimir guild, consisting of the blue and black mana, essentially operate as Ravnica's Spymasters, Knowledge Brokers, and Professional Killers, and their symbol is a heavily stylized eight-legged spider with a single big eye on its back. They were, in fact, so sneaky that for the longest time, most people believed there were only nine guilds on Ravnica. | |

It: Imagery of spiders's webs is used to symbolise the town of Derry, It's hunting grounds, as well as the town's underground sewer network, where It resides and uses as It's main method of transportation. Fittingly enough, It's real form, or at least the closest thing humans can perceive, resembles a giant, black spider. The "deceit" part of this trope is fulfilled by the fact that, though It's modus operandi shapeshifts into children's worst fears, It's Pennywise the Dancing Clown form serves to attract them. | |

"Writing spider" is a regional name for spiders of genus Argiope, who are known for making zigzag markings in a different type of silk on top of their regular web. The markings make the web harder for prey insects to see but make it stand out to large animals like birds and mammals who might otherwise accidentally destroy it. While they can't write SOME PIG, it's still a pretty clever adaptation. | |
