Worst / Scarriest Spider Experience
Mine would have to be three years ago when I lived in a small little home in Victoria. I was watchign TV around 2AM
with the lights off when all of a sudden, the corner of my eye caught a dark figure moving across the floor. My sister was behind me on the computer. I asked her to turned on the light... very reluctantly.... ..... CLICK "HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!" this spider was hairy had orange on his back and the body of the spider was about the size of a Baseball. My sister screamed and ran upstairs while I started chucking everythign at it. I mean EVERYTHING. Afterwards I ran upstairs and hid under my blankets screaming like a little girl the entire time. When I woke up... The spider was gone... 2 months later another reamerged only with green on it's back (meaning there were two) beside my computer. I once again hucked everythign and run upstairs only to eventually find it had dissapeared. Mind you... Each time I "chekced" if the spider was dead or not... I forced my dad to while i hid.... Another 2 months later while we were moving we were getting the carpet redone for the next owners.... The men who did the carpeting.... Right under my stairs they claimed to have seen 6 spiders all the biggest they have ever seen in their lives. =(

The worst was when I was cleaning my room and I had just moved a shoe to a spot behind me, turned my back on it while I reached under my dresser for the other shoe, and when I went to pic up shoe # 1 there was a wolf spider right behind it. I shrieked and dropped aforementioned shoe on its head. I didn't see any guts on the shoe, so I think it got away and lived to terrorise another day...

once i was washing my face, and the bathroom window had little pink lace curtains, and the towel rack was right underneath it... me being a lazy 15 year old, couldn't be bothered to pick the face towel up, so i just bent down and dried my face with the towel still on the rack when i looked up there was the fricken BIGGEST spider i've ever seen in my entire life perched between the folds in the curtains less than a centimeter away from my face, i could almost smell the fucker. I screamed so loud that the neighboors thought i was being murdered and knocked my door down, one of them even was going to call the police. That and i lost my voice for a few days, to say the least i was humiliated that i caused so much commotion over a spider.
*shudders* My boss also has a spider problem in her office, spiders on her walls first thing in the morning every day :) MMMMMMM!

I was hiking in the rainforest in costa rica, and the path was covered by a fallen tree (as it often is) so I had to walk around and basically "bushwack" my way around. I was literally 2 cm away from sticking my face right into this guys web, and having it on my face
 it was about 5 or 6 inches

I ate a spider about the size of a quater for $5 and this was only about 2 years ago.
I had a party at my house and a massive spider crawled through the garage and people just cleared out. I picked the thing up and started playing with it to freak people out. They couldn't believe what I was doing so to go that one step further I put the thing in my underwear. Spider's round here don't bite; no matter how often I pick them up I have never been bitten... I refused to believe that any spiders bite until I got a spider bite in Australia that dripped puss down my ankle for a week... this still didn't turn me off of spiders. I saw this web when I was on a hike in Australia... My cousin dared me to run through it, but I didnt cause I wasn't sure if they were poisonous.

Worst was years ago when I lived at my parents place. Was sleeping in the tree house one night. Woke up cause it was getting kinda windy. Turned on the light and saw two wolf spiders on my sleeping bag and one on the pillow beside me. I freaked out. Jumped out the tree house and went to sleep in my own bed. That was the end of my nights in the treehouse. . . Fucking spiders. . . grr

when i was a kid, i was on a camping trip with my family and one night while i was sitting next to a fire i felt something on my shoulder so i looked over and there was the biggest fucken spider i'd ever seen just sitting there, relaxing on my shoulder. So i freaked out and ran around trying to get this fucken spider off me. Nowadays i don't care about spiders, or any other kinds of bugs after treeplanting for 2 years.

I can *totally* understand how you'd nearly walk into one. I nearly did too, and the fucker was as big as my hand (with fingers spread as wide as I can). Check it out: can you see how easy it would be to walk into this thing? :)

They're called the golden orb spider I think. They can't kill you or anything but they'd still give you a wicked bite. I had a nightmare about it that night actually, and I woke up to find a giant cocoroach biting me on my arm, dirty fucking roach!

So I was cleaning out a garage that we were to do a reno on. Fucking lazy ass client didnt clean the place out so we had to.
Guess what..... Fucking INFESTED with spiders. Black Widows to be exact. Few of them under a Nickle in size, many larger. Many pregnant. Hundreds of them. Everywhere. Oh, and upon moving a chair, finding a Wolf spider with the body size of about a toonie around. Oh yeah, I almost shrieked at that one (and I shriek well, kinda like a crow), but instead whipmered slightly, informed my co-worker (also not big on spiders), and gently swept the fucker out the door. I didnt kill a single spider that day.
