WATCH: Dog Dressed Like Giant Spider Scares the Pants Off People

by Grieves, Deidre

Even though it may seem early, Halloween is right around the corner. Now is the time to start working on your haunted house, take stock of how much candy you’ll need to feed trick-or-treaters, and of course, find the perfect costume for your canine friend.

Halloween is also a time of pranks—terrifying, scare-the-living-life out of you pranks. And YouTube user SA Wardega is a master at scaring people silly.

Normally, when people dress up their dogs for the October holiday, it’s for laughs. There are cowboy costumes, Star Wars costumes, and even food-inspired costumes. But SA Wardega decided to dress up his dog as a GIANT FURRY SPIDER and let the dog loose on some unsuspecting humans.

The result is one of the most devilish tricks we’ve seen to date—because at first glance, the spider costume is pretty convincing. The medium-sized black dog really manages to look like a huge, hairy, mutant arachnid that crawled directly out of your worst nightmare.

The dog runs after people in parks, surprises ladies waiting for an elevator, jumps out at a man who is opening the door to a building and manages to make a subway rider run for his life. You have to see it to believe it, folks.

Chica the DogSpider now has a Facebook page, and we have a feeling that she’ll be getting a lot of love online during this spooky season. Prepare to be terrified.
