In the Middle Ages, these spiders were highly sought after for their ornate posteriors, since spiders in different regions have wildly varying designs. They were used to seal envelopes with wax due to their sturdiness when dried, and designs used to identify certain royal bloodlines. Rich people were literally waxing dat rear end before it was a euphemism.

In the middle ages people were using American spiders to seal letters? Which people? Which different regions are you referring to?

I swear to god that this a repeat of an episode - I remember listening to something like this before but with a different actor doing the voice, someone from The Shadow.

The folks that made the Lights Out short have a bunch of other creepy shorts on their channel, worth checking out. Though it's become kind of a running joke that the woman who stars in all of them has the worst luck with ghosts.

I wish I knew more but I haven't really looked around for them. I only know of thelittlefears on youtube for some 'audiobooks' of creepy stories. They include some weird, disjointed video with the stories too. There's also Vicious516's stuff, but they haven't updated in a while too.

Thanks, definitely gonna watch these in the dark when I get home from work.

To contribute, I just watched this whole thing:

It's a really long examination of the Wyoming Incident videos, from their supposed start as a hacked TV broadcast through the connection with serial killers trying to summon spirits to probably a hoax by SA goons but nobody knows who really, but this guy did a tremendous amount of research (or seems like he did, maybe it's all made up too!) Interesting and spooky either way.
