It's not the creepiest spider in the world, but this image of a Heteropoda Maxima and its brood is one of the creepiest collections of pixels I've ever seen. I wish I had an attribution, but I can't find this outside of some random German webforum.
UPDATE: I posted this image on the xkcd forums, whose residents have been kind enough to post related images of predatory centipedes, bird-eating spiders and blankets of baby spiders. Lovers of creepy crawlies should check it out (don't worry - most of the images are in spoiler tags so you won't be confronted with them all at once.
If that's not the the creepiest spider in the world then I'm not sure I wanna see the creepiest. But I kinda do. creepy!

ReplyDeleteStumbled upon this piece after reading a newsflash....... That's just sick enough to scare me shitless even if it was half the size and 10% of the amount of babies. And this is the nice looking one, ey? I really don't wanna see its scary counterpart. Too late. I think I did. It's my worst nightmare!
