[[Demonic Spiders]]: the bane of players everywhere, these are the enemies that will make you [[Angrish|scream in fury]] (or [[Nightmare Fuel|quake in fear]]) each time you see them. A product of [[Sturgeon's Law|poor]] (or, perhaps, [[Classic Video Game "Screw YousYou"s|malicious]]) playtesting, these are the guys which will defeat you over and over again using tactics [[The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard|that just seem unfair at times]].
 
The defining trait of Demonic Spiders is that they are ''random'' or ''common'' (in the case of games where [[Random Encounters]] don't happen) enemies that seem unfairly powerful. These are not dangerous because they distract from something else, they are likely what kills you when you're distracted. They are not dangerous because they push you into hazards, they are enough of a hazard by themselves.
