I used to be afraid of spiders, now I have a pet tarantula and she’s literally the most docile little creature ever. They get a bad rap, but once you learn more about them, you realise they’re just little poobrains ❤
What kind of tarantula do you have? I've had two pink toes, and they were just so chill. My first one jumped on my back one day, and if my brother hadn't gotten her off me I don't know how long I'd have had to carry her around. I was afraid to reach for her because I was afraid I'd hurt her.
After a particularly bad winter. I went under a double wide trailer that belonged to an old man a couple streets away. His water pipes had frozen and burst. So, he had no running water. I had made my way to the place where the buried pipe from the meter came up and connected to the trailers water. This was pretty much right under the trailer’s hot water tank. It was wrapped in heat tape and was all right but right after it split to the cold was all busted and right where it came out of the floor from the hot water tank was all busted. I replaced all of it. It took a about an hour. I couldn’t see past about 2-3ft because I was using a little battery powered light that looked like a lantern but wasn’t. I crawled a little towards the cinder block foundation to look for more damage to the pipes. I was suddenly horrified to see hundreds of Fiddleback spiders crawling all over the blocks and ground. Most folks know them as Brown Recluse spiders. For a split second I thought they were Wolf spiders because of their size. Nope, they were definitely Fiddlebacks. I don’t know how the hell I had not gotten bitten yet. They were freaking everywhere. Turns out that old man had been throwing his garbage bags out back between the foundation and a retaining wall. They never bothered to fill the dirt back in after pouring the footers and putting in the foundation. There must have been at least 10 years worth of garbage laying just the other side of the foundation from where I was. I’m a country boy. I don’t scare easy. I’ve been around Brown Recluses all my life. They’re mean. One bite can rot a softball size place out of you. Your back, your leg or your face. Still, I had NEVER seen Recluses that big. Anyway, I crawled the hell out of there leaving everything I took with me behind. I told everyone and they kind of poked fun at me. Here in the country. A man shouldn’t be scared of a little spider. So, I took a mason jar and went just far enough to catch one of them. People freaked the heck out when they saw it. These sum bitches were huge. I still have nightmares.
If you ever get bit, take a sterile needle, and go in horizontally, to open up the top, and rip it open, squeeze out all the liquid possible, and then make a baking soda paste, and coat it good, and bandage it well. It soaks out the toxin. I got bit years ago, and my toe swelled up twice it's normal size, and it was itching like MAD. We put a tourniquet on my ankle and did this procedure. It worked. ! Praise God.
Brown recluses get a bad wrap. In fact, so many of the “brown recluse bites” that are reported actually are not from the recluse at; there’s a lot of misattribution that happens after someone develops a mysterious skin lesion, a sort of catch all for unidentified small epidermal wounds/infections. Secondly, they are very difficult to identify because they’re brown and small, much like MANY other native spiders. The only true way to tell is to count their eyes: they are one of very few arachnid species to have six (arranged in three pairs of two) whereas most other small spiders have eight eyes. In a study conducted in 2005 at the University of California, scientists asked for people nationwide to send in spiders that they believed to be brown recluses. When all was said and done, less than 20% actually were, and it became evident that poison control centres, physicians and even trained entomologists weren’t that great at identifying a recluse from other spiders. People are really good at “seeing” the violin marker on any number of species. In Georgia specifically, over 1000 spiders came in, and only 19 were brown recluses. When one does encounter the brown recluse, they’ll find that they’re very shy and very reluctant to bite. Once their venom is depleted, it takes time to make more, leaving them defenceless during that time. Take for example a family in Kansas that lived in a home infested with over 2,055 brown recluse spiders for six years. Number of bites? Zero. Bites only tend to happen when they’re getting crushed, like if they’re hiding in a shoe for example. But even then their fangs aren’t long or tough enough to penetrate most socks. Even if one IS bitten by a recluse, there’s less than a 10% chance that that bite will become medically significant. Most look like small mosquito bites. So all of this is to say, it’s easy to vilify things we don’t understand and go crazy with overzealous panic at the sight of any small spider. But they are often gentle and private creatures; leave them alone and they are more than happy to do the same. Better yet, drop a fly into their web for them, and watch how interesting they can be! 🕷️ ❤️
One of the most amusing things I've seen on my land on the mountain: I was wandering around early one morning, and saw a sizeable spiderweb limned in dew, with a chubby spider sitting in the proverbial center. The spider saw me coming past, and it began to bounce the whole thing like some kind of horizontal trampoline. It was literally calling attention to itself and its freshly completed web, so I wouldn't stumble into it and wreck the night's work!
I had a good sized spider make a huge web from the flag hanging from my porch to a bush about 6ft into the yard. I just happened to go out front that night with a flashlight and saw the damn thing! If I hadn't then I'm sure my husband would have walked right through it when leaving for the gym the next morning! The webbing stuck to my broom and I had to burn it off with my lighter. Yuck!
Lol me too! It’s 9.30 pm. I’m alone in bed with my iPad, listening to this story, in the dark, I got about a third, or a quarter of the way through, and had to stop. I sent it to myself on messenger, so I can listen in the daylight….
I used to be one. The women of my family are raised by women afraid of spiders so I was one. Then I took a zoology course and had to study them and dissect a tarantula. I didn’t want an f so I forced myself to do it. Now I can deal with them unless it’s sudden. I live in a farm, I just couldn’t get rid of them even if I wanted to, there are too many.
This one was pretty good. I kept getting the mental picture of Aragog and his children from Harry Potter. Love your mastery of the skill and art of storytelling. Thanks for doing what you do so well.
Anyone else think they felt spiders crawling on them while listening to this? About the only thing that could get me to go into the lair of a colony of giant spiders would be to rescue a dog.
@@lindaarrington9397 um thank you but I’m not trying to be a doctor, med term is medical terminology and it’s just a class I need. Im a microbiology major so I’ll be the person in the lab testing samples and culturing microbes.
I have said it before but you are definitely my favorite narrator. I think it’s a combination of your voice and the fact that you can make us feel like we’re actually in the story. You deserve everything good that you get.
A friendly reminder to leave a like on your boy Light House. We all forget sometimes as I myself can attest to. This man deserves whatever support you can give if your subbed. Every little bit counts.
My favorite narrator ever! You're the best Lighthouse! I'm surprised your voice isn't used for others narrations, commercials or anything requiring speaking. Your voice becomes the story you're telling. We should hear this fabulous story telling voice everywhere! 🤗
This really could've used an arachnophobia warning. I love your channel and listen to everything you publish. I have a severe arachnophobia ever since I was 10. I went to a classmate's slumber birthday party. I fell asleep first. The other boys thought it was hilarious to place a live, pet tarantula on my face over my mouth.
Another upload! Every time I see you upload a new story I get excited. You and The Dark Somnium are the best creepypasta/scary story narrators of all time.
I have two pet spiders, they’re both jumping spiders. They are the cutest fluffies spiders with a bunch of curiosity. They’ve really helped me appreciate and love spooders 🥰
I had an absolutely HORRIBLE day at work today and this little ray of sunshine got uploaded. TYTYTY for the upload Stephen. At least one good thing came out of today!!!
I know!! The perfect trifecta if Creepypasta channels uploading new content! And on a "Meh"😐 Wednesday night.... thank goodness the best 3 creepypasta channels saved the night 🌃
You Mr Lighthouse are throwing out pure awesomeness. Mr Creeps uploaded earlier this evening. Then Mr The Dark Somnium just put one out. Been a good evening. Hope yours is as well my Friend
I’m late to the party 🎉 but soldiers, spiders, LIGHTHOUSE HORROR & DARKLY_GATHERS! This was a BRILLIANT & TERRIFYING tale! Thank you STEPHEN for the scary good times! 🔥👊😄🔥
Most spiders creep me out, but I love cat faced orb weavers, last summer I had a female one living on my back porch that I fed moths to and it grew to well over an inch.
They make the most beautiful webs, don't they? Ours was nice and polite, she pulled her web in during the day and put it out again at night. Those and the Lucas spiders are the only ones I like, everything else gets an escort outside. Far, far away.
These stories are plenty of fun but I'd like to ask if you could do more of the Half Priced Voodoo Shop series at some point? Its my favourite series on the channel - and your Travis voice is iconic!
Yes thank you Mr. Lighthouse for giving me something to look forward too. Blessing us with ur awesome talent and choosing the wonderful whimsical stories that these talented writers write for our pleasure..
NOT A JUMPING SPIDER ! 😂 I have enormous arachnophobia and now I know a whole lot about tarantulas to the point where I could keep one ! EVEN A POKIE ( if I had the money) JUMPING SPIDERS ARE ADORABLE AND ACTUALLY LOOK AT US! That's a Phil..Regis if I am not totally mixing my spooders up. Looks like a female because the brown- ish stripes, but I didn't see the front legs yet !
@@Kryssaira Oh yes of course I am! I am a legal adult for a while now , but listened to all of his short stories when they appeared on YT , voiced by the artists adorable nephew ! Him sleeping in the shed, a toy car - thingy , his friend the fly, him making a dream catcher etc. Long before the plushies came out and the channel exploded.^^ That was at the hight of my taranrula / spider research and Lukas came up somehow. 🤷
Oh Jesus…..It’s like the writer read my mind, discovered one of my biggest fears, multiplied it by 200%, and viola….the perfect nightmarish story! I can forget sleeping…I’ll be itching all night long!
As someone fresh out of an invertebrate zoology course, the first few minutes hurt my soul lol. I could hear my professor talking about how wrong some points were or how bad the logic was. Good narration as always though
Man,!! Every time you drop a story, I realize just how good you are. You always seem to post at the perfect time.. Right before bed! Thank you! Always look forward to the next download. Never enough. Thank you Stephen!! Ok, enough chit chat! Get back to work! We need more stories!! Hahahahaha
I'm the person in the room who rolls their eyes and picks up something to kill a spider when others start to freak out, but this story creeped me out. Good job to both the author and our constant Lighthouse in the dark.
Same here kinda, just nobody really freaks out. I'm usually the one that takes care of a spider though as I like spiders and prefer to move them instead of killing them. Anyone else wouldn't have it in them to carry the spider in their hand and instead just kills it.
I barely spare a thought when a human character is killed off in a story but when an animal is in jeopardy, I get so worried about it. When ripley put her cat down in alien, I lost it
I like to stand out in the yard on summer nights and shine a flashlight over the grass. You can see an entire sea of bright eyes staring back at you, all Virginia grass spiders. You can walk around them all and go right up to each one and get down to eye level as they just sit there. Which uh... actually is probably as annoying as hell to them since they're trying to hunt. My bad.
Two times in my life I have seen a spider poop. One went to the edge of his web and let it drop. The other was on a bookcase. It looked over the edge, turned around, backed up, and let it drop.
I love your narrations so I committed to finishing the story since it wasn't long BUT that was creepy af! 😂 Clicking legs above. I might have nightmare!! 🥴
Oh, this one was a tough listen. I'm terrified of spiders, even though I know they're generally helpful little critters. And the images at the beginning of the video--gah! Terrific story though, and superb narration as always.
Thank you for your comment! I was looking for any comments that confirmed if the dog survived, if it hadn’t, I didn’t know if I was gonna be able to listen to this one or not! I’m a little too sensitive about animal deaths 💜
Jezuz. Spoilers guys. I don’t go looking into the comments. But it freaking annoys me when clicking on the video you see the top comment and it’s people commenting “oh I love that twist..” or ‘thank goodness such and such didn’t happen.’ Like come on. Suspense is the best part of most of these stories. Sigh. Rant over. If you are gonna comment stuff like this start it with SPOILERS… and a couple enter … enters …so we can’t see your freaking spoilers. Can you tell this is one of the simple things in life I have to enjoy…? Ok. Rant now officially over. Love you all and this community.
Good news spiders can't really see you with their eyes. They just kinda see only light or dark. But it is true they can make noises loud enough to hear and they can detect vibration with their hairs on their body to figure out where you are
Thank you Stephen for making my morning with this awesome pasta. I definitely loved this one. I actually like spiders and tend to keep them around. As long as they don't build their web in the path of walking I typically leave them be and let them catch the pests like flies that I don't want around. Otherwise I'll move the spider to a more suitable location. Spiders are welcome guests for me.🖤🖤🕷️🕷️
I really can't believe he did me like that.😭 You can't just have spiders crawling at ppl. That's how people break their phones.😅 I definitely couldn't get pass the first few minutes...this one is too scary for me.😂
Wow. A story that combines the things I love best & the things I hate the most!! Anything that could take a dog has to be huge & terrifying….. Thanks Stephen I really needed a story- maybe not this particular 1 tho!! 😂 ♥️♥️♥️♥️😎✌️
I remember moving to AZ and seeing my first wild tarantula, the guy freaked out and i tried to covr it with a solo cup but it was too big, but i got it down with dustpan and broom and got it to the other side of thr building. My dad's friends had an obsession with black widows and i have a calm demeanor so i essentially never freak out even if I dont like the thing.
I got bit in my leg by a spider while sitting in an LP/OP in the jungle in Panama. I still have issues with my leg. I was bitten in 1989. I am now a spider assassin.
In general, I don't mind spiders. But I prefer not to be near them. You see, I woke up one day and pulled on some tights, only to find one leg soaked. For a moment, I thought my cat had used them as a litter box, and I was pretty peeved. Except there was no scent. Definitely not cat pee. I was so confused about how a single leg if my tights had gotten wet, when I realized a blister on my hip had burst. Except I'd had no blister the night before. I smacked a bandaid on it and rummaged around fir a new pair of tights to wear-winters in eastern Washington get pretty chilly. As the day wore on, it got worse. Terribly itchy and rather painful. Over the next few days, two things were clear. It had been a spider bite, with two little holes still clearly visible. And, it was necrotic. The circumference of the bite was growing, while the center pitted down with black flesh. It was awful. Everyone suggested it was a hobo spider, but studies show their bites don't cause necrosis. Some said brown recluse, but the State allege those don't live this far north. Despite that, researchers have investigated instances of necrotic spider bites in the PNW and found that, despite the insistence from the states' governments that there are none, they have been seen and identified. So whether it was an astronomically rare brown recluse or an impossible hobo bite, I don't really care. I just get a little anxious whenever I see a brown, skinny-legged spider lurking nearby. Oh. We couldn't afford a trip to the doctor, so my friend and I did something I would NOT recommend and treated the bite with straight hydrogen peroxide. It took five applications before the peroxide had dissolved enough dead tissue for me to even feel it. I cannot stress enough, that is terrible first aid. I'm lucky I heal very quickly. The ulcer from the bite was really deep, though. I've still got a scar~

Exactly, they are such chill fellas, derpy AF. Except jumping spoodles, those have ADHD.
I have arachnaphobia...this episode gave me the heebie jeebies 🕸🕷🦂
What kind of tarantula do you have? I've had two pink toes, and they were just so chill. My first one jumped on my back one day, and if my brother hadn't gotten her off me I don't know how long I'd have had to carry her around. I was afraid to reach for her because I was afraid I'd hurt her.
They’re so delicate. And so helpful to the ecosystem. I always put them outside gently. Aussies legit pee themselves when you do that there😂❤
Nope
After a particularly bad winter. I went under a double wide trailer that belonged to an old man a couple streets away. His water pipes had frozen and burst. So, he had no running water. I had made my way to the place where the buried pipe from the meter came up and connected to the trailers water. This was pretty much right under the trailer’s hot water tank. It was wrapped in heat tape and was all right but right after it split to the cold was all busted and right where it came out of the floor from the hot water tank was all busted. I replaced all of it. It took a about an hour. I couldn’t see past about 2-3ft because I was using a little battery powered light that looked like a lantern but wasn’t. I crawled a little towards the cinder block foundation to look for more damage to the pipes. I was suddenly horrified to see hundreds of Fiddleback spiders crawling all over the blocks and ground. Most folks know them as Brown Recluse spiders. For a split second I thought they were Wolf spiders because of their size. Nope, they were definitely Fiddlebacks. I don’t know how the hell I had not gotten bitten yet. They were freaking everywhere. Turns out that old man had been throwing his garbage bags out back between the foundation and a retaining wall. They never bothered to fill the dirt back in after pouring the footers and putting in the foundation. There must have been at least 10 years worth of garbage laying just the other side of the foundation from where I was. I’m a country boy. I don’t scare easy. I’ve been around Brown Recluses all my life. They’re mean. One bite can rot a softball size place out of you. Your back, your leg or your face. Still, I had NEVER seen Recluses that big. Anyway, I crawled the hell out of there leaving everything I took with me behind. I told everyone and they kind of poked fun at me. Here in the country. A man shouldn’t be scared of a little spider. So, I took a mason jar and went just far enough to catch one of them. People freaked the heck out when they saw it. These sum bitches were huge. I still have nightmares.
If you ever get bit, take a sterile needle, and go in horizontally, to open up the top, and rip it open, squeeze out all the liquid possible, and then make a baking soda paste, and coat it good, and bandage it well. It soaks out the toxin. I got bit years ago, and my toe swelled up twice it's normal size, and it was itching like MAD. We put a tourniquet on my ankle and did this procedure. It worked. ! Praise God.
oh wow !! John, this could make a really cool scary story...I really , really dont like spiders... love your experience :)
Brown recluses get a bad wrap. In fact, so many of the “brown recluse bites” that are reported actually are not from the recluse at; there’s a lot of misattribution that happens after someone develops a mysterious skin lesion, a sort of catch all for unidentified small epidermal wounds/infections.

The only true way to tell is to count their eyes: they are one of very few arachnid species to have six (arranged in three pairs of two) whereas most other small spiders have eight eyes.

Even if one IS bitten by a recluse, there’s less than a 10% chance that that bite will become medically significant. Most look like small mosquito bites.

I am not scared of spiders but I think that is a case best handled by a flammenwerfer and mustard gas. Just go all WW1 on them

Spider: "Hey! Look at what I made! :D Also don't ruin it!"
I had a good sized spider make a huge web from the flag hanging from my porch to a bush about 6ft into the yard. I just happened to go out front that night with a flashlight and saw the damn thing!

@@Fran10969 “I made dis! I made dis! What you think! Plz no smash! :D”
Is that why they bounce their webs? Ive seen them bounce them so fast that the spider becomes a blur

Yay!!!! I was so pumped to see a new update ❤️ Thank you, as always well done.
UGH! I HATE spiders!!!!! I've seen videos of those GIANT MONSTERS in Iraq....hello-no! This was a extra creepy one!!!!
I'm the person in the room who rolls their eyes and picks up something to kill a spider when others start to freak out, but this story creeped me out. Good job to both the author and our constant Lighthouse in the dark.
Same here kinda, just nobody really freaks out. I'm usually the one that takes care of a spider though as I like spiders and prefer to move them instead of killing them. Anyone else wouldn't have it in them to carry the spider in their hand and instead just kills it.
Grassyass!!! My friend! I truly needed a good one tonight!
Excellent story with great narration. Also I hate spiders, the wife is the one who deals with them 😅 Not sleeping tonight at all!
The highlight of my week! Thank you ❤
I barely spare a thought when a human character is killed off in a story but when an animal is in jeopardy, I get so worried about it. When ripley put her cat down in alien, I lost it
I love me some lighthouse horror stories
I like to stand out in the yard on summer nights and shine a flashlight over the grass. You can see an entire sea of bright eyes staring back at you, all Virginia grass spiders.
You can walk around them all and go right up to each one and get down to eye level as they just sit there. Which uh... actually is probably as annoying as hell to them since they're trying to hunt. My bad.
OMG, this just made my night sleepless 😢 my fear is inmense but not a phobia anymore. I don't wanna imagine my anxiety attack if it was still a phobia
When this story started I had my eyes closed I thought he was talking about my ex girlfriend till I looked and see spiders 😮 either way scary stuff
Ha ha ha 🤣
Two times in my life I have seen a spider poop. One went to the edge of his web and let it drop.
The other was on a bookcase. It looked over the edge, turned around, backed up, and let it drop.
We need the part 2 where the lil babies from the eggs take over the barracks, all hell breaks loose and it's those spiders versus the soldiers
I love your narrations so I committed to finishing the story since it wasn't long BUT that was creepy af! 😂 Clicking legs above. I might have nightmare!! 🥴
Oh, this one was a tough listen. I'm terrified of spiders, even though I know they're generally helpful little critters. And the images at the beginning of the video--gah! Terrific story though, and superb narration as always.
"Those eyes" 😢
The eyes in question, pictured on the derpiest little looney tunes guy pie you ever saw: oOOo
"You can actually hear their fangs grind as they dream on their next meal" 1:28 - cute spider just chilling
Damn I love the way u edited the video to coincide with ur telling well done LH
(SPOILERS)
I LOVE WHOEVER MADE THIS, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR LETTING THE DOG LIVE❤❤❤
Thank you for your comment! I was looking for any comments that confirmed if the dog survived, if it hadn’t, I didn’t know if I was gonna be able to listen to this one or not! I’m a little too sensitive about animal deaths 💜
Jezuz. Spoilers guys. I don’t go looking into the comments. But it freaking annoys me when clicking on the video you see the top comment and it’s people commenting “oh I love that twist..” or ‘thank goodness such and such didn’t happen.’
Like come on. Suspense is the best part of most of these stories. Sigh. Rant over. If you are gonna comment stuff like this start it with SPOILERS… and a couple enter … enters …so we can’t see your freaking spoilers.
Can you tell this is one of the simple things in life I have to enjoy…? Ok. Rant now officially over. Love you all and this community.
@@LOH__ yes, this. seriously. thanks for nothing.
@@LOH__ Sorry, i never thought of that untill now, i'll put it in the title of my comment so i doesn't happen again.
I like this kind of spoiler 😂
As much as I like spiders, I wouldn't want to run into any that big nor that numerous.
More military stories please✌️ 💪
Here I am, awake at 4am, creepy stories to the rescue! Thank You 💙
Hope a good Creepypasta helps with the insomnia.
I took out the last bmf at the shooting range with my 12G. I do not like them creeping around my bag.
16:29 "As I crash hard to the ground...and lose the knife to the shadows."
Of course.
OF COURSE you freaking "lose the knife to the shadows"
😡
Good news spiders can't really see you with their eyes. They just kinda see only light or dark.
But it is true they can make noises loud enough to hear and they can detect vibration with their hairs on their body to figure out where you are
Narrator: Talking about how creepy spiders are in the intro.
Me: Tickling and babytalking to all spoodles I find.
Thank you Stephen for making my morning with this awesome pasta. I definitely loved this one. I actually like spiders and tend to keep them around. As long as they don't build their web in the path of walking I typically leave them be and let them catch the pests like flies that I don't want around. Otherwise I'll move the spider to a more suitable location. Spiders are welcome guests for me.🖤🖤🕷️🕷️
OK 👍🏻 YA IM TAPPING OUT‼️ 2:08 I thought I could watch it but I couldn’t 😳 maybe it’s your voice but I can’t do it‼️ Full admission of my fears…
WHOOHOOOO ANOTHER BANGER!!!! Wish u could tell one everyday lol...
The spider part never really scared me I think they are quite beautiful
I really can't believe he did me like that.😭 You can't just have spiders crawling at ppl. That's how people break their phones.😅 I definitely couldn't get pass the first few minutes...this one is too scary for me.😂
That's because the story so short it ain't worth tellin! DAYUM!
.....I appreciate you
Now I'm not afraid of spiders or anything, but this story is horrific. Well done!
I hate spiders, they get in my thick hair and it's hard to find them
Wow. A story that combines the things I love best & the things I hate the most!! Anything that could take a dog has to be huge & terrifying…..
Thanks Stephen I really needed a story- maybe not this particular 1 tho!! 😂
♥️♥️♥️♥️😎✌️
Perfect narration as always.
Thankfully I don’t have arachnophobia, but where I live now in the Arizona desert, there are hundreds of black widows.
I remember moving to AZ and seeing my first wild tarantula, the guy freaked out and i tried to covr it with a solo cup but it was too big, but i got it down with dustpan and broom and got it to the other side of thr building. My dad's friends had an obsession with black widows and i have a calm demeanor so i essentially never freak out even if I dont like the thing.
I am so terrified about spiders I can’t even look at the video. Great stories though ❤️
I dont like spiders, i fear them...when i see one i try to throw it out of house....but most likely it ends only 1 way
If I wasn't scared of spiders before... certainly would be after that description 😂
You should be way higher on subs.... SHARE PEOPLE SHARE!!! ❤
Terrifying. And the Last video before bed. Super.🤬
[You take a sip from your trusty Vault 13 canteen...]
Magnificently awesome and the stuff of nightmares!! Loved every minute. Thank you and the author very much!!
You got me, within twenty seconds, checking my dark ass porch at 1030 pm for spiders bro! 😂😂 i may have to wait till morning 😂
Part 450 of thanking the lighthouse horror
Are used to be afraid of spiders. Now, I still am but I used to too.
Omg my young cat was so ready to eat the spiders in the beginning. She was mesmerized
I got bit in my leg by a spider while sitting in an LP/OP in the jungle in Panama. I still have issues with my leg.
I was bitten in 1989. I am now a spider assassin.
In general, I don't mind spiders. But I prefer not to be near them. You see, I woke up one day and pulled on some tights, only to find one leg soaked. For a moment, I thought my cat had used them as a litter box, and I was pretty peeved. Except there was no scent. Definitely not cat pee. I was so confused about how a single leg if my tights had gotten wet, when I realized a blister on my hip had burst. Except I'd had no blister the night before. I smacked a bandaid on it and rummaged around fir a new pair of tights to wear-winters in eastern Washington get pretty chilly.
As the day wore on, it got worse. Terribly itchy and rather painful. Over the next few days, two things were clear. It had been a spider bite, with two little holes still clearly visible. And, it was necrotic. The circumference of the bite was growing, while the center pitted down with black flesh. It was awful.
Everyone suggested it was a hobo spider, but studies show their bites don't cause necrosis. Some said brown recluse, but the State allege those don't live this far north. Despite that, researchers have investigated instances of necrotic spider bites in the PNW and found that, despite the insistence from the states' governments that there are none, they have been seen and identified. So whether it was an astronomically rare brown recluse or an impossible hobo bite, I don't really care. I just get a little anxious whenever I see a brown, skinny-legged spider lurking nearby.
Oh. We couldn't afford a trip to the doctor, so my friend and I did something I would NOT recommend and treated the bite with straight hydrogen peroxide. It took five applications before the peroxide had dissolved enough dead tissue for me to even feel it. I cannot stress enough, that is terrible first aid. I'm lucky I heal very quickly. The ulcer from the bite was really deep, though. I've still got a scar~
I'm an arachnophobe. I listened to Vidith do Wawa yesterday and Lighthouse do this story today...
Good evening thank you for the wonderful stories I hope your week is going well God bless you honey❤
Now THAT is when ya want a good old-fashioned flame thrower boys & girls...😃👍
This one was hard to listen to. I hate spiders so freaking much. But damn it was intense.
As someone scared of spiders, the descriptive narrative at the beginning gave me such heebie jeebies
❤ thank you for uploading
So Awesome that Sparky the Dog stayed by his side.... Pets Rock.!
I call spiders “spindly bois”
Makes them cuter for me to handle
Only thing I kept thinking was where the f is your weapon troop?!
More content for me to listen to in the morning hours😂
Spiders move hydraulically let that sink in, with terror abound
