Top 10 CREEPIEST Scorpions, Spiders & More!

Depending on the time of day, the creepiest creature in my basement is probably me.

Seeing a black widow in the wild never bothered me much... it's when I look away, then back and it's gone that I tended to get nervous.

[@rodneybever9583]

My camel spiders never fail to give my friends the shivers. Especially when it is feeding.

[@MamaCoastie]

Gotta love those mandible moves.

[@wollewolf9863]

I´ve heard that camel spiders die in captivity and its nearly impossible to keep them alive long time.True?

[@rodneybever9583]

@@wollewolf9863 The ones we have here in Utah are pretty hardy little buggers. I haven't had any species from anywhere else but from my research they are very similar to each other in care much like preying mantis are. They are pretty short lived though. Typically they live for a bit more than a year and when you just happen to find one on the porch (how I got all mine) they are usually middle aged. So as a pet it will only last for about 6 months or so. I think that there may be longer living species but I am more of a tarantula guy. Some tarantula females can live to 25-30 years.

[@JPsPetNation]

Same here my other 1/2 thinks they r a demon the way she act to the ones I gave . But she pkay with the rest of the inverts what is odd to say lol

This was seriously like movie quality stuff man! I got an immense amount of entertainment value out of this as well as information! Keep it up, I never wanna see these end.

[@jamiebreez1783]

That video was so kick-ass, especially the ending... was too funny! Hey have you guys ever seen (very not creepy) peacock spiders? Get some of those little beauties! Definitely check them out on you tube if no one has! Also spiders on drugs, super funny video. Thanx so much!

[@nemurenumixefraxciton4962]

Millipedes are just the cows of the arthropod world. They’re too adorable to be creepy 🤣

[@SuperFm101]

Well tgere is one factor if you handle one they leave a poisonous oil on your hands tgat smells foul

[@marissawindler9214]

@SuperFm101 if I remember correctly, that poisonous foul smelling oil is actually cyanide, as a lot of species of millipedes are Able to produce it as a defense while stressed from predators and handling

[@marissawindler9214]

Honestly quite an interesting fact for a truly beautiful and adorable creature

[@marissawindler9214]

But needless to say, wash your hands immediately after handling, you really don’t want to ingest that while eating

[@bexkrak3970]

Of all the spiders I've seen and read about, I have actually never seen the green lynx one and I must say it is beautiful!!!

[@Exthias1983]

Agree 100%. That was the one in this video that impressed me the most!

[@kevinpoe8137]

I have several species of mantis, they’re more cool than they are scary, their eating habits on the other hand 😬

[@adhamelmaghalawi_7320]

What species r they, cause ima get videos of those guys freaky eating

[@Des420]

One of the creepiest invert things for me was the sound a bin of Scolopendra make, laying waste to a box of crickets. A slithery, crunching cacophony.

[@marcusmathewdeleon8200]

You deserve a hundred thousand subs bro! Btw I think you can add the skeleton tarantula as a special mention. I know it wasn't spooky all the time but I think it fits for the holloween. Great vid bud!

[@tarantulacollective]

No doubt! That would've been perfect for this episode.

[@J_Diz]

Yeah my scorpion bangs on it’s enclosure when I’m trying to sleep, it doesn’t have a lid

[@ianholmes3761]

Perhaps it's listening to the rock band the scorpions.

I’m up to 14 tarantulas now! Every time I get a new one I watch this dudes video on that species. Best KZbin channel ever!

[@diegozea1987]

Awesome video! As always, thanks! Former arachnophobe here but still can't get over those dumb spider crickets, creepiest things ever! Getting the chills just thinking about it right now!

[@MamaCoastie]

Okay, I just re-watched this video and I've gotta stand up for my beautiful widow ladies. Those males they eat after mating deserve it - lazy jerks hardly ever web up on their own, they let the ladies do all the hard work of catching and incapacitating prey, then they come along, wreck the web and steal it right out from under her. Rude. I love my widows. If the tarantulas aren't enough to keep people from dropping in without notice, mentioning that I have more than a few widows usually does the trick. ;)

[@brotherkhrayn3525]

Honestly, I just found you, just watched a few of your vids, and I love how you present your information and your collection.

[@tarantulacollective]

Awesome, thank you! It is great having you!

[@pgrvii6825]

Great video sir. The black widow bit was way cool. While not necessarily creepy to me,I have a male Gonodactylaceus graphurus (Orange Spot Mantis Shrimp) thats a total boss. I live in a 3 story house and can hear him smashing things in the basement while upstairs!

[@tarantulacollective]

Oh wow....that sounds pretty cool!

[@alyxhowlette4552]

how can your production quality be this good but you have only 16k subs how tf. should def have more. I'll send my fellow invert lovers your way ♥

[@tarantulacollective]

Thanks a lot! That is a very awesome compliment. I'm glad you like the content. I've only been putting out videos for about a year and started out with my cellphone and no knowledge on how to use a camera or edit a video. So I've been learning on the fly and upgrading my gear and trying to learn some new editing style with every video....so hopefully in time people will start to discover my channel. Breaking through on KZbin is tough work.

Once we had an spider hunting under water (german name: Wasserspinne). Translate in to english this means water spider. They build an air bobbel under water and can ceep some air whit them at their hairs while hunting. They even catch small fish in rare situations.

Gave him a second chance, and me a newfound fondness to them. Sorry for the essay haha, but i seriously like your videos!

Awesome video! To me the creepiest is a Potato Bug. hahaha! First time I saw one I was like: WHAT IN THE 9 HELLS IS THAT??? lol!! As for spiders, centipedes and scorpions..well, being born and raised in Hawaii - we had those huge Cane Spiders that were all over the place inside your home. Though non-venomous, they would scare the bejeezus out of me, especially if you move a bath towel and they're right under there - those things are FAST! I got stung by centipedes several times because they'd crawl up my pant legs without me knowing so when I'd sit down...BAM! Yah...fun... And for scorpions well, they're just all over the place so will eventually get stung if you stick your hand in the right place at the wrong time. lol!

[@hypotree6132]

When I used to Live in Zanzibar many, many years ago, they had Giant African Millipedes there (Archispirostreptus gigas.). They used to call them the Tanganyika Trains as they would grow over 12 inches long. My dad used to collect and put any invertebrates that were found in the house into a large specimen bottle of formalin to keep to remind us when we got back to the UK of what he'd found. Some of the ones he had were upto 10 inches long. Still only 2/3rds fully grown!! :-))... And then there were the centipedes too. Some of those were 8 inches long and as thick as your index finger!! :-((...

[@painter4769]

Awesome video man I use to own a black widow about 5 years ago and it has to be the easiest to keep spider or T I've had but because there deadly i stopped so i dont scare my guests or family away lol.

[@tarantulacollective]

I keep mine on my desk at work. Occasionally I take her up front to show off to customers.

[@sidewaysonhighways]

Harvestmen are pretty creepy. They are often mistaken for spiders; particularly cellar spiders and also share the “daddy long-leg” moniker. I used to see harvestmen on Ken the Bug Guy’s webpage, and he had some different colored ones also. They are not venomous and they are not actually spiders at all. Black hole spiders are a good alternative, and are super easy to take care of. They looked like young wolf spiders when I saw and held one. The are fairly creepy and skittish.

Ahah, like you for your fear of tarantulas, I got my first emperor scorpions in hope to overcome my "fear" of them! While I found them very pretty and interesting, scorpions, most likely due to there not being anything like them here in Québec, the idea of being close to one always made me uncomfortable. Like... I would be able to admire them, and was quite fond of their look, but could never muster the courage to actually care for one. Now I'm always looking forward to going back to my mom's place (living in dorm, pets not allowed :'( ) so I can care for them! Vinegaroons are SO AMAZING!!! I have one, and she's so amazing! I've never been sprayed by her yet (touching wood lol), and handling her is really fun!
