I'm pretty sure the spiders do this on purpose. They see people coming at them, and at the last minute move, FAST.

There are some fast things in the world. But none of them is as fast as a huntsman runninng. Hearing those little hairy feet slamming across the walls as they run is absolutely unreal.

I'm not a person that's usually afraid of spiders but pardon me what the fuck lol?

One day I was laying on the couch, studying. I thought I heard something shuffling across my floor. So I looked in the direction the sound came from and there walked a big Eratigena male.

I was amazed I had HEARD a spider walk across my floor.
