If you were to ask me what the most frightening representative of nightmares was, I would respond with SPIDERS. They're walking masses of hysteria and madness-inducing fear, with eight legs every probing into the outside world to find new prey. EEEEEEUURRRGH.
Spiders are the most well-known type of arachnid, and there are many types of spiders alone, some scarier than others. Most of them are equipped with their trademark weapon, neurotoxins, which paralyze prey and allow the spider to liquefy the insides of it's catch. Most spiders spin webs in their hunting activities, which also conveniently double as homes, but not all spiders do this. Some relative rarities, such as trapdoor spiders, resort to other methods. Even with web-builders, their webs can vary, such as those of banana spiders which have a zig-zag pattern. If I weren't so scared of them, I could pay some time to admire...
