Heh...
Page break hides the warning!
I really love how this has become the new creepy spider thread.
edit: whoops, looks like someone already posted the Twitching Spider Lamp.
Back when I was going to school in Texas, a friend of mine got bitten by a Brown Recluse in bed. Half his face started to rot. So... there's something to think about when you're trying to sleep.
My dad sprays his greenhouse once a year to keep his orchids happy, and he has to wear a white chemical suit to do it. One year after he took it off he noticed tiny brown spiders all over his arms and legs. Needless to say he freaked out. Later that week all of the bites from the hatchlings turned in to puckered black necrosises that, according to him, hurt pretty badly. After looking around on the interwebs some he found that the progression of the bites mirrored those of freshly hatched brown recluses.
Craziness.

My clothes itch.
This video is a little cruel but I'm pretty sure they caught themselves a baby headcrab.
More spiders, I need more spider stories!
I remember when I lived in my parent's-in-law house in Japan. They had a very traditional (aka old) Japanese house with a very traditional (also aka old) Japanese bathroom, the kind where you squat to do business. (Sorry hope no one is eating dinner...) It had a little sliding window on the outer wall that was always open. Anyways, I did what I had to do and stood up. Glancing over my shoulder, to my horror, there was this massive spider on the wall just a foot or less from where my beautiful(!) bum had been.
I almost jumped out of my skin, it was as big as my hand and mean looking.... Forget big. It was huge, like Godzilla huge. Then, I realized that it was just a spider skin that it had shed and left stuck on the wall there. I mean it was so big, for a moment I thought it was a crab, but that didnt make sense... it being on the wall and all. In hindsight I realize that the discarded exoskeleton means that the owner may have been lurking in there... even larger than it had been before it shed its skin.
I was never able to squat and do my business in innocent comfort ever again... That spider may be hiding behind YOUR toilet even as I type this, you just never know.
Old as dirt, but perhaps new to some of you.

Wouldn't it be cool that after you finished recoiling in disgust and horror at the spider's skin and turn you head back to the front, you have this huge (freshly molted) spider locking gaze with you RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOUR FACE!!

This reminds me of the pure and often under-appreciated brilliance that is Dunston Checks In:
When I was in the sewer once, I saw a turtle that was so big it looked like a Volkswagen with a tail. That was 1969, Summer of Love... I never felt comfortable sitting on the john since.

Saw that recently when looking for spider stuff to post. It's a classic

This is a little off topic, and I don't want to start a whole thing with snakes, but I heard a story in Australia that is related to this. There was a guy sitting on the loo, minding his own business (as it were,) when a snake slithered into view next to him. In an attempt to get way from the snake he jumped up and ran as fast as he could for the bathroom door. Unfortunately, the trousers around is ankles meant that he only got to take half a stride before he crashed to the bathroom floor like a felled tree, breaking his jaw in the process. The snake later turned out to be harmless.

You must be respectful to Jyorougumo-sama, for she can take the form of a beautiful woman and there is not enough soap in Hokkaido to make you feel clean after spider god sex.

Oh Japan. You wonderful creepy nation.
You have NO HONOUR.
That's possibly the creepiest spider pic I've ever seen.
