It's true, for many spiders are there #1 fear in the world. And why not? As children, we were taught from an early age that if we spotted a spider we were supposed to snuff it out with a paper towel or napkin for fear of what they could do to use while we're not looking.

Plus, in many horror films (usually crapfest movies, but still), spiders are cast as the main antagonists. In the movies, they kill countless people as they appear like horrifying venomous monsters or as a giant tarantula that's as big of a car. Of course, this giant spider runs rampant all over the city, all the while wrapping up people in their webs so they can save them for breakfast (hello Frodo and Ron Weasley).

Jokes aside, most spiders aren't that dangerous, and the majority of spiders (including scary tarantulas) aren't a threat to humans. However, there are still several different types of spiders that have resulted in us having a phobia of spiders in the first place, and these spiders may lead to bites that vary from something that can be painful to a terrifying death sentence.
