Some people are scared of spiders. Whenever they see a spider, they will become scared, either screaming in horror or trying to swat the spider with a rolled-up newspaper or stomp it to death if it's on the floor. Essentially, this trope is when spiders are portrayed as being scary monsters in different forms of media. Sometimes, they can be giant monsters in horror movies, while they can be normal-sized, yet still retain the scariness that they are thought to have. They're often portrayed as extremely venomous, capable of killing or incapacitating humans. This happens occasionally in Real Life and near constantly in stories. In these instances, the sight of a creeping spider is comparable to that of an approaching cobra or tiger. If anthropomorphic, they may be portrayed as more sneaky and manipulative. They may be Evil Puppeteers, due to the resemblance between a spider's webbing and a puppet's strings. In reality, while there are indeed a number of deadly spiders on Earth, most of them are more likely to be found in relatively "remote" or exotic regions, such as Australia or Brazil—and even there, most spiders are harmless, and not all areas have particularly venomous spiders.note For instance, the most dangerous spider in the Australian state of Victoria is the redback, which like its North American cousin the black widow will make your life miserable for a few days but won't kill you unless you're a child or already weakened by something else. In America, the most notorious deadly spiders are the black widow and the brown recluse, and the very name will have an air of death and apprehension. In reality, both of these spiders are extremely docile, and their bites are rarely serious — most fatalities are children or people with weak immune systems. In lieu of either of these spiders, however, the spider most likely to be used to inspire fear and revulsion is one of a wide variety of tarantula species. Despite being relatively harmless to humans, their size and appearance is a grade of Nightmare Fuel all by themselves. Even when a spider really is dangerous to humans — such as the Sydney funnel web or Brazilian wandering spider — they won't aggressively attack people under normal circumstances (see Animal Assassin for more information). The former, in fact, has 13 total confirmed deaths to its name — all prior to the introduction of antivenom in 1981. In reality, more people are killed each year by champagne corks or falling vending machines than spiders. A rather unimpressive record compared to, say, bears, crocodiles, venomous snakes, or even canines or sharks. However, those animals all have two eyes, internal skeletons, and red blood. When it comes to narrative effect, otherness is always scarier than practical threat. Sadly, this trope is Truth in Television, as arachnophobia is one of the most common phobias found in people of all ages, preceded only by heights and darkness. Spiders themselves are Not Evil, Just Misunderstood, as they are very effective pest controllers and most species will not (and most often cannot) do anyone any harm and are docile creatures. Killing them is actually detrimental, especially if one has a large garden or a insect problem (and considered bad luck in some cultures). That unfortunately doesn't stop most people from instinctively wanting them dead or out of the house. Compare Creepy Camel Spider, Giant Spider, Spider Swarm, Sneaky Spider, Scary Scorpions and Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?. Contrast Friend to Bugs, for someone who might love spiders, and Friendly Neighborhood Spider, for the opposite depiction of these animals. Compare and contrast Seductive Spider, which depicts spiders as attractive despite still being implicitly threatening. Not to be confused with Demonic Spiders, which is a gameplay trope, though the two can certainly overlap. |

Tara's arrival in TNA revealed The Beautiful People were afraid of spiders, at least when they were big hairy tarantulas. Poison, as the spider was revealed to be named, only showed up when Tara was a babyface, suggesting no-one expected the audience to fear spiders. She did however use Poison to good effect when feuding with the Beautiful People — releasing her to crawl all over poor Velvet Sky. Likewise, Madison Rayne eventually found Poison in a box and was left terrified. | |

There's a scripted event in Story of Seasons (2014) where you'll go in and find Margot and Jonas arguing over what to do with a spider that was in their house. Margot saw one and chased it with a broom trying to crush it and shoo it out, while Jonas believes that it would have left on its own so there was no need to harm it (and it could have been scooped up and taken out gently). You can agree with one or the other for a friendship boost with the one you agree with, but trying to agree with both upsets them both with your non-answer and makes you appear wishy-washy. | |

Digimon: The first three seasons had Dokugumon, a monstrous spider Digimon who served either as a guard to the bad guy's lair or just as a typical spider catching other Digimon that get caught in its web. The second season also had Arukenimon, an Arc Villain. The first season had what's named Kodokugumon. Those are the zillions and zillions of mini-Dokugumon that appeared with the first one. You can go for an army of the full-sized ones! That's what happened in Digimon Data Squad. If Gaogamon's Mid-Season Upgrade hadn't shown up then, the team would have been screwed. Digimon Ghost Game features the return of Arukenimon as a brain-eating Mad Scientist with an entire army of Dokugumon at her beck and call. She's easily one of the most terrifyingly effective villains in the series and would have killed the entire main cast had GulusGammamon not dealt with her. A later episode has a new version of Kodokugumon overrun a shopping center, attacking the shoppers en masse with corrosive venom and feeding on them to grow bigger. |

Dragon Age: In the first game's Mage Origin there is a Giant Spider Jump Scare in the underground tunnels. When going down one of the tunnels a spider will drop down from the ceiling behind the player. That is, it jumps right over the camera and fills the entire screen. The series has had giant spiders since the first game and regularly has them appear to fight the player in a Jump Scare. But in Dragon Age: Inquisition, during a sequence taking place in a nightmare realm, the Inquisitor and party have to fight off spider-like creatures sent by a creature called Nightmare. In-universe, each character is seeing something personalized, but the Inquisitor and Hawke are seeing spiders. The spiders are named for various fears, Death, Abandonment, Senility, etc.; amusingly, at one point, one of them is given the title "Ironically, Spiders." The Nightmare itself also looks like a horrifying giant spider to the Inquisitor. Seems like the Inquisitor is a bit of an arachnophobe. |

In Morganville Vampires mad-scientist vampire, Myrnin, takes a pet house-spider and calls him Bob and gives him another spider as a friend. This is greatly to Claire's dislike, being an arachnophobe herself. Ada used the other spider as a weapon as she blew said other spider up to be the size of a stool and set him to attack Claire all because she was jealous of her. Eventually, the other spider just exploded, unable to cope with the dramatic resizing. | |

She's terrified of heights and the dark but pretends to Miss Cackle that it's spiders she's afraid of — when asking if fear can be magicked away. Miss Cackle says it can't and one must just get used to their phobias — and conjures up a spider to make her point. Afterwards, Mildred reveals she loves them and has a pet spider at home. | |

Prehistoric Park Reimagined: While generally prone to feeling nervous around multiple different types of invertebrates during the earliest seasons of the story, and also someone who generally loves all animals as a whole, Leon Gilbertson is also not ashamed to admit that spiders are one of the few animals that he is truly unambiguously terrified of. Quite notably, even after gaining the courage to work with several other potentially unnerving prehistoric invertebrates such as pulmonoscorpius, he still shows himself to be more than willing to try to put off trying to work with the newly discovered prehistoric spider genus megalorachne. | |

In The Hound of the Baskervilles (1959) a tarantula is left in the shoe belonging to Henry Baskerville, which promptly crawls up his arm to his shoulder, poised to deliver a deadly bite before Holmes sweeps it off with a walking stick and kills it. Partially justified later, when Holmes remarks that a tarantula’s bite is not always deadly, but Baskerville’s heart condition would have made it so. | |

Transformers: Sins of the Wreckers introduces its version of Tarantulas, who is generally less creepy than his cannibalistic Beast Wars counterpart, but is a morally unhinged lunatic who turns into a giant-even-by-Cybertronian-standards spider, and has an unhealthy fixation with Prowl. | |

Harry Potter: Averted with Harry, who has lived in a cupboard long enough not to be bothered by normal spiders. His best friend Ron however is terrified of spiders, stemming from a childhood incident where Fred cruelly turned his teddy bear into a spider. It's a fear that's shared by his actor in the films, Rupert Grint. This fear is made much worse when, in the second book, he and Harry have to brave an entire colony of Acromantula; while they got out okay, Ron spent a few minutes afterwards vomiting into Hagrid's garden. In the third book when facing a Bogart — a shapeshifting creature that turns itself into a person's phobia — Ron naturally has his turn into a huge spider. The narration says "quite a few people screamed", showing he's far from the only arachnophobe in class. The series feature Acromantula — which are Giant Spiders capable of human speech. They're also incredibly vicious and will happily eat humans. Hagrid's pet Aragog does not harm him out of loyalty — but he's happy to let his family eat Harry and Ron. |

In The Last Continent, the land of Fourecks is filled with extremely venomous spiders. One victim dies instantly, then starts turning purple, and when the same spider bites a stick, the stick starts to dissolve. They are also known to use their webs as trampolines to go for the face. | |

Power Rangers and all other Toku series have a spider Monster of the Week every so often. Kamen Rider makes a point of it, as Homage. The first two Monster of the Weeks in the original series were a spider and a bat in that order, so many a modern KR will have a spider and a bat as the first monsters, or recurring enemies, or paired, or important to the story, or something. Spiders are really the ones they use to ramp up the creepy, though, so this trope is in effect whether homaging or not. Most KR monsters are People in Rubber Suits, but the spider in Kamen Rider ZO was a huge horrific Claymation drider with blood-red eyes and unhingeable jaws on its otherwise human face (looks like a Glasgow Smile, then opens its mouth, and... uh, you should run at that point.) Kamen Rider Ryuki gave us a giant CGI spider that revived as a giant CGI drider. Kamen Rider Double has a Spider Dopant in the team-up with Kamen Rider OOO, and its design wasn't too scary but its effect was pretty horrible. | |

Later, Gordon plants one in another bad guy’s glove. This bad guy spots it before it bites him, and he predictably thinks the spider guy is trying to kill him. | |

In Brackenwood, Bitey really doesn't like spiders, although it seems to be as much disgust as outright fear. The scene where this appears pokes some fun at his excessive arachnophobia. The view shifts between the spider, which is just sitting in its web and not doing anything, and Bitey, who is approaching the spider with a stick like it's a volatile explosive. This goes on until a leaf lands on Bitey and he freaks out, hitting himself on the head with the stick by mistake before running away. The spider then gives an Aside Glance to the camera, as if saying "really?" | |

So I'm a Spider, So What? also plays with the trope. Most Taratect, especially Kumoko's titanic Mother, look exactly as creepy as you'd expect giant spider monstrosities to look, but our main protagonist Kumoko looks like the cutest thing on eight legs. This turns out to be just her own view of herself - from the perspective of humans, she is just as terrifying to behold as any other Taratect, and when she tries to speak to explain herself, all that comes out is horrific screeching. What's more, as she is far more powerful than the average member of her kind, has a bunch of skills you would not expect a beast to have, and fights with a human mind as opposed to the instincts of a monster. Her encounter with a party that attempts to kill her results in a terrifying Mook Horror Show that earns her the title "Nightmare of the Labyrinth". In fact, Kumoko is so damn scary that even other monsters start fleeing from her, causing her to completely wreck the ecosystem of the Great Elroe Labyrinth just by existing. | |

Spider monsters are a staple of the Resident Evil games. When people were used to the tarantula and huntsman style Giant Spider they were given several redesigns to be made scarier, and included even when they weren't needed (Resident Evil 5 had realistic, normal but still huge ones in the background, and the Lost in Nightmares DLC had some bigger than Jill's ass.) | |

In Undertale, this attitude drives Muffet's grudge against humans (and your character by extension). If you prove her wrong by buying one of her ridiculously overpriced items right before her fight, she won't even challenge you. Alternatively, eating one of the items from the spider bake sale in the Ruins during the battle itself will prompt her to spare you on the spot. Muffet herself is a major aversion of this trope, being a six-armed Cute Monster Girl who isn't scary at all. | |

Dark Souls II features the Duke's Dear Freja, a massive, eight-legged abomination that nests on a hollowed-out dragon's corpse, and is accompanied by man-sized spiders. Her introductory cutscene makes a nightmarish close-up on one of her two heads, and she's none too happy about your intrusion on her territory. In fact, the other spiders react in fear to her as well; after her death, they will even run away if her head(s) is kicked anywhere near them, like they would with fire. On New Game Plus, she'll even scare the crap out of seasoned players by making an appearance outside of her boss area. | |

Transformers: Prime features Airachnid, a black widow-based Decepticon huntress who rules the Insecticons and delights in adding new species to the Endangered list, humans included. She was also responsible for the death of Arcee's first partner, as well as Breakdown and Silas. As if that weren't creepy enough she gets transformed into a Vampire-Terrorcon hybrid mid-series and is last seen feeding on her own subjects. | |

Subverted in Spellsinger. The Weavers look terrifying because they're human-sized spiders and protagonist Jon Tom is an arachnophobe, but they're actually peaceful and have no interest in joining the Plated Folk's war against the warm-blooded species- in fact they prefer staying as far away from mammals as they can, because they find the appearance of mammals such as humans to be utterly terrifying. They actually end up pulling a Big Damn Heroes moment in the climax, arriving in time to blunt a major attack by the Plated Folk. | |

In Girl Genius, the one thing that Gil and Agatha hesitate to fight is a spider the size of one's face. Gil in all seriousness claims that handling a small army of Clanks is easier than handling one really big spider. In this case, less because it is scary, and more because it is icky when you crush them. Von Zinzer obliges with an extendible hand. | |

Legs the Tarantula in The Bad Guys quickly terrifies the others (save for Mr. Wolf, who he's already on good terms with) purely out of being a spider. Despite this, he's a good guy with simply a bad reputation, an amazing hacker and inventor for the team, and an all-around nice guy. A major arc in the book "Mission Unpluckable", his debut book in the series, is him teaming up with Mr. Shark, who has to learn how to shake his fear of him to help the others. | |

Bug Fables: A (relatively) Giant Spider is the first boss of the game. It is a seemingly-immortal vicious predator that was known for being the reason every journey to Snakemouth Den ended up being the final one for many unfortunate explorers. It also ensnared Leif in its cobweb for decades, killing him and leaving his husk behind to be possessed by Cordyceps fungus. Ultimately, Team Snakemouth, together with Leif, finally manages to vanquish it, yet the tales of many explorers who fell in its hands still continue to haunt bugs. Smaller spiders also appear as regular enemies, but the really creepy example has to be Mimic Spiders encountered in Forsaken Lands, who take the guise of ants to lure the team into a sense of security, only to reveal their true forms to attack and eat them. Peacock Spider, another Giant Spider boss and one of the Bounty bosses, is a giant, vicious beast that basically acts as a Bugarian version of a siren, playing alluring beat to bring unfortunate travelers into its den on the Peacock Island, only to ambush and devour them. It also commands armies of Diving Spiders and can empower them in battle. |

The fire-spiders in The Quest of the Unaligned. Not only are they giant foot-long spiders that shoot strands of flaming web, they also attack in swarms of five hundred or more and tend to inhabit caves where the spilt web on the walls can cook their victims alive via a notable aversion of Convection Shmonvection. The scene where Alaric and Laeshana have to cut their way through a swarm of these things is one of the book's tenser moments. | |

The Elder Scrolls: Throughout the series, Giant Spiders are a frequent enemy. They tend to pop up in dark places that already instill an air of fear, such as ruins and caves. In Skyrim, Farkas, a member of the Companions inner circle and a BFS-wielding werewolf, becomes terrified of Frostbite Spiders to the point where he won't accompany you through a spider nest during a critically important mission. Have a companion with you in these areas and they will voice their concerns, and custom voiced follower mods are nine times out of ten are even more fearful (a notable exception being Inigo, who actually finds spiders very fun to fight and kill). Mephala is a Daedric Prince whose sphere is "obscured to mortals", but who is associated with manipulation, lies, sex, and secrets. She is referred to as "the Webspinner" and is associated with spiders, often with Arachnid Appearance and Attire. Her lesser Daedra servants are the Spider Daedra, which take the appearance of mutated, humanoid Giant Spiders. |

It turns out it was just a spider through the telescope, which causes Snowy to laugh at him... until he sees it himself and jumps three feet in the air (which blossoms a running gag through the series).

Exterminatus Now: Eastwood has a massive phobia of spiders, despite being an Inquisitor who faces down demonic horrors on a near-daily basis, and while he doesn't exactly do so fearlessly, he can do so without being reduced to a blubbering mess, which is exactly what he does when faced with a common house spider. This is a problem because The Patterner, one of the settings Big Bad quartet of evil gods, has the spider as one of his symbols, and his demons and servants occasionally takes the form as gigantic, demonic spider creatures. | |

Tolkien's Legendarium: Ungoliant from The Silmarillion, who's less "Giant Spider" and more "vaguely spider-shaped Eldritch Abomination." Morgoth himself became frightened of her once she got a little boost. Her mortal descendants include Shelob from The Lord of the Rings and the Mirkwood Spiders in The Hobbit, and while they're far less powerful than her, they're still pretty scary. | |

Fazbear and Friends (ZAMination): Just like in the original game, Mommy Long Legs It is the worst case scenario, in its debut episode, Foxy has a terrifying encounter with her in the thing and in a panic tries to kill her, even Freddy is scared when he sees her when he arrives at the pizzeria, in the worst case scenario, this version of the character is much scarier than the game, but it still has its flaws. | |

Courage the Cowardly Dog: "A Night at the Katz Motel" features several scary spiders. Six which are the pets of Katz. One that is released from a box by Katz in an attempt to kill Courage. One that tries to bite Muriel while she's in the bathtub. A giant collection of spiders in jars located in a room that Courage enters. And finally, one that Katz tries to kill Courage with, only for him to be bashed over the head by a tennis racquet from Muriel, dropping the spider in the process. |

Sonic the Hedgehog: Sonic the Hedgehog 2 has Grabber, a robotic spider that inhabits Chemical Plant Zone. Grabber grabs the player in his legs and explodes if they don't escape him in time. Sonic CD has Kumo-Kumo, a robotic spider that inhabits Quartz Quadrant Zone. Kumo-Kumo fires sticky webs at the player, slowing them down for a few seconds. Sonic 3D Blast has Spider, a robotic spider who inhabits Spring Stadium Zone. He shuffles back and forth along a straight diagonal line and can only harm Sonic if the hedgehog walks straight into him. The Wii U version of Sonic Lost World has Tarantula, a robotic spider that inhabits Silent Forest Zone. He hangs down from a web and cannot be destroyed by simple homing attacks at first; a flying kick is required to knock him off his web sting. Once knocked off his web, then he can be destroyed by a homing attack, but must be done so quickly before he gets back up and returns to his midair position. Sonic Adventure: The second half of Red Mountain in Sonic's Story has near the end of the stage, Sonic zooming pass a hallway filled with giant spiders. |

Spider-Man: While averted by the heroic Spider-man himself, this is played straight by his spider-motif enemies Venom and Carnage. Sort of. Even then, Spider-Man is supposed to be creepy. When shown from the villains' point of view, we're shown a guy who moves and stands nothing like a human being, can come out of freaking nowhere, and no matter how far you run or how sneaky you think you're being, you will find him hanging upside down in front of you with the giant bug-eyed eyepieces staring into your soul. Subverted in the Six-Arms Saga, where Peter accidentally sprouts four extra appendages after taking a serum meant to nullify his spider powers and goes into hiding, reasoning that the public and many if not all of the people he cares about will react this way upon seeing him like that. In issue 1 of Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man (2019), Spider-Man rescues a little girl, and when he returns the girl to her dad, the girl sees the giant spider symbol on Spider-Man's chest, and smacks it. Her dad goes up to Spidey and apologizes to him, saying that his daughter is scared of spiders. An alternate universe that Deadpool encounters plays this horrifically straight. Not only has Spider-Man chosen to keep his extra arms, along with sporting fangs and engaging in cannibalism, but he has become a Horseman of Apocalypse, specifically Pestilence. According to Stan Lee, Marvel publisher Martin Goodman almost squashed the Spider-Man idea for the reason that "people don't like spiders." This is why Spidey made his debut in the last issue of the cancelled Amazing Fantasy. In one of the Avengers/Justice League crossovers, Wonder Woman describes Spider-Man as "creepy" and tells him that it's his own fault people are suspicious of him. |

Animal Crossing: The tarantula, which is the closest thing to an actual enemy you'll ever encounter alongside the scorpion and the wasp. It makes an unnerving scratching noise as it moves, and villagers will sweat nervously and make some unsettled remarks if one is nearby. If it spots you it'll simply stare at you for a moment, then run off. However, if you have a bug net equipped when this happens, it'll instead hiss and start chasing you. If it catches you, its bite will knock you out, after which you'll wake up in front of your house no worse for wear. They only appear in autumn and winter, but that doesn't mean a break for the rest of the year, because the scorpion takes its place in spring and summer. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: "Luna Eclipsed": Princess Luna — formerly Nightmare Moon — in a rather misguided attempt to make the ponies of Ponyville no longer afraid of her, brings several large beanie baby-esque spider toys to life. This, as the resulting spiders are large, menacing balls of hair with glowing, slitted red eyes, doesn't really calm anyone down. "Castle Mane-ia": While the star spiders found crawling all over the ruined castle don't do any harm to anyone, Spike finds them intimidating and is very unnerved at the thought of having to be close to them. "Maud Pie": Subverted with a spider who looks menacing... up until it pulls out a flower and offers it up as a gesture of friendship. Said spider does this to Fluttershy — showing she is indeed A Friend to All Living Things. The flyders. They're spiders with insect wings, meaning they can fly, and move in swarms. They can shoot webbing with enough accuracy to tangle a fleeing pony's legs and at one point completely cover a campsite with webbing in a matter of minutes. They're also highly aggressive and seem to consider ponies to be food. When a huge swarm attacks during a camping trip in "Campfire Tales", the characters are visibly — and admittedly justifiably — terrified of them. "What Lies Beneath": Yona, an arachnophobe, finds the Spider Swarm she encounters in the caves absolutely terrifying. Subverted by the episode itself, as the spiders turn out to be friendly and harmless creatures who help Yona find her friends. |

Doctor Who: The Eight-Legs of Metebelis III in "Planet of the Spiders". Mutated by blue Metebelis crystals from Earth spiders that stowed aboard a colony ship, they eventually grew to several inches across and gained mental powers that allowed them to dominate (and occasionally eat) humans. Their supreme ruler the Great One became a true Giant Spider, many yards across, and attempted to take over the universe. You can probably guess how that turned out for her. "Arachnids in the UK" involves the Doctor and company having to deal with very large spiders, the largest being the size of a van. Pretty much everyone involved feels this way about them, especially the arachnophobic Ryan and Robertson. |

Beast Wars features two Predacons who Transform into oversized spiders. Blackarachnia usually isn't particularly creepy, not to mention she eventually has a Heel–Face Turn, but Tarantulas tends to be creepy enough for three Predacons, so it balances out. | |

The Looney Tunes Show: In "Itsy Bitsy Gopher", Bugs is trying to get an especially large African sand spider out of his house. Lola reacts by throwing a lamp at it and leaving (Daffy tags along because he doesn't want to go near it either), and even Taz flees as soon as he sees it. | |

Pikmin: The main species of recurring spiders are the "Long Legs" type of enemy, which are gigantic boss fights relative to the player characters who stomp Pikmin with their four legs. Other spider-like enemies are usually hostile, with the four smaller "elemental" Dweevils being the exceptions, only attacking in self-defense. | |

Double-subverted in Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes. Sadako is happy to find a spider in the first chapter and claims they bring good luck, which her brother doesn't believe. Given what ends up happening to her, the trope is being played straight. | |

The 1950s sci-fi film Earth vs. the Spider was about a giant mutant spider that invaded a nearby city. No relation to a similarly-titled 2001 movie about a lowly comic book fan who injects himself with a serum in order to become a superhero with spider-like powers, but although it causes him to gain the powers of a human-sized spider, it also gives him the appearance of a human-sized spider and an endless hunger for human flesh. | |

The episode ended with O'Brien's pet tarantula crawling on Barclay's arm. The seventh-season episode "Genesis" had Barclay devolve into one for a Jump Scare. |
