Monday's Riddle: Creeping In...



Hello Riddlers! It's almost Halloween! Can you guess our theme this week? Here's what we think scares you the most. ; ) ~ F

Scuttling out from the dark, I'll seek you out for a lark. I've lots of eyes to find my way, and lanky legs that stick and stay. I crawl right up and stare at you, watching carefully what you'll do. Most will scream, some will run, whatever happens, it's always fun. I don't know why you think I'm so scary- I didn't ask to be this hairy. After all, I can come in handy- I eat buzzing things just like they're candy. Also, I'm lucky- just ask Anasi. I've been called clever, tricky, and I'm known to be sassy. But, alas, when asked what frightens you most, I was called out even more than a ghost.

What am I?

I gave you a clue!

    A tarantula came to mind as I was reading the clues and running across one scares me out of my wits so I'll have to say spider also. :)
