Hola, greetings from "the islands"! ;-)
I watched the whole clip, but my wife couldn't, which means, I guess... good job? :-D

Aww tell her the big chunky one even has a name now. It is big but harmless. It is almost Halloween after all, so the point is to be a bit spooky. And me being a ghost which is kind of a recurrent thing around this time of the year. I had lots of fun extending the lyrics of this one. I know my dark songs are usually less appreciated but they are so much fun. The video has its flaws but had to be within deadline... I made it, a day early at least. 👻🎃🤣 Blesses Samhain, All Hallows Eve. For me this time of the year is like a time for introspection, leaves fall and winter is ahead, but they also nourish the soil for future growth.

Our home grown spiders are nice too, like Eratigena atrica or Araneus diadematus (I don't have own photos around so I'm linking to @bowess' posts to show you examples)
However they are having a hard time with the cat being around ;-)

Oh I saw the spider blogs and I have followed :) This video features many species of spiders, most of the takes is a big fake wolf spider in my bathroom and some from a lurking spider in the corner of a room (still there), others are stock but took the trouble to composite them (like fufunchis) into creepy rooms If you see through the cobwebs you see the bed is already there halfway through the song. There are like two rooms, the toilet (in and out the window) and the bedroom. :) It was fun. And well, I'm a mice/rat person so I'd struggle with cats, but I think they're super cute. I think it's their natural instinct, he's just debugging your house, but aww poor spideys!

Were you in La Palma? I have yet to see "the aftermath" It's been a long time I've not been in my homeland but cannot afford now, all in due time. My family lives in Tenerife and I also need to pay a visit.

Gran Canaria this time, there were no direct flights to La Palma yet, and our schedule was very tight.

Some other time then. Hope you had a great time though. I confess I have been myself a bit nostalgic about my homeland
