Trapdoor Horror - This may be a species of giant trapdoor spider, although according to some accounts it has too many legs that are too flexible and too many eyes suspended on longish eyestalks. In any case, like the trapdoor spider but at a much larger scale, this creature builds a hiding space for itself in floor, wall, or even ceiling, concealed by a cunningly contrived false stone (or actual stone pasted together with creature saliva) trapdoor. Sensitive to vibrations, it jumps out to gather in its prey just as it gets within inches of the trapdoor - roll to detect a Trap at a significant negative TDM, or to Dodge if not surprised, or get snagged by at least 4 to 6 hooked, tentacular arms, dragged into the alcove by a ST 20-30 creature, and then slowly nibbled to death.
