* ''WesternAnimation/HazbinHotel'': Anthony "Angel Dust" is a more humanoid [[SpiderPeople spider demon]] who has a job as a DragQueen, porn star, stripper and gay prostitute. Due to his job [[MrFanservice he's the most sexualized member of the main cast]] and will sleep with just about anyone for the right price ([[DownplayedTrope though he charges more for women]] because he's gay). He's a more crass take on this trope, and the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulfeM8JGq7s Addict]] suggests [[StepfordSmiler he's not all that happy]].

* Tsuchigumo from ''Anime/{{Karas}}'' is the sole demon who is female, and a human-spider hybrid with an attractive figure. She can also take on an absolutely gorgeous human form, and is the only villain of the show which goes under EvilIsSexy.

* ''Franchise/StreetFighter'': Juri Han is a sadistic Amazonian Beauty with plenty of PsychoLesbian and BDSM overtones, and spiders are her AnimalMotif.

* All the monster girls in ''Manga/MonsterMusume'' [[CuteMonsterGirl are attractive]], but [[SpiderPeople Rachnera Arachnera]] is the most seductive and sexualized of them. The rest of her species aren't far behind. Notably their physiology is specifically tailored for mating with human men, their otherwise rarely-used pedipalps serving to hold the man in place.

Of the different types of arachnids, spiders seem to fascinate people the most. Usually [[SpidersAreScary they're something to be afraid of]], but sometimes not only are they [[FriendlyNeighborhoodSpider friendly]], but weirdly... attractive. [[EvilIsSexy Even if they're still nasty]], there's something seductive about a being who's cunning, and [[TheVamp attracts and entices its prey]]. After all, the BlackWidow trope is named after a spider. There's also the fact that spiders tend to be shaped like the ImpossibleHourglassFigure.

Due to his job [[MrFanservice he's the most sexualized member of the main cast]] and will sleep with just about anyone for the right price ([[DownplayedTrope though he charges more for women]] because he's gay).

** The Queen is a villainess with mystical control over spiders, and is an extremely sexy woman that uses both her beauty and mental powers to seduce and control others. She once chose Spider-Man as her "mate"; unfortunate for him, as he was both married at the time and "mating" meant that ''he'' [[MisterSeahorse would be the one impregnated]], not the other way around.
** ComicBook/{{Silk}} and Spider-man mutually-secreted hormones that made the two of them irresistibly attractive to one-another. Even though they eventually decided they were BetterAsFriends, whenever they had a conversation, it was always laced with heavy {{Sexual Euphemism}}s and unintentional ([[TheTease as well as intentional]]) flirting.
* In ''ComicBook/SpiderWoman'', pheromones' are part of Jessica Drew's spider-based powers, allowing her to manipulate men (and sometimes also women, DependingOnTheWriter).

* ''ComicBook/TheIncredibleHercules'': In the Herc series, Hercules is one of many heroes in New York who wind up with the same powers as ComicBook/SpiderMan, but under the mental control of a villain. He further mutates into a [[SpiderPeople Spider Person]] while fighting the ComicBook/XMen, only for the Greek goddess Arachne to come to his rescue. After taking a look at Herc in his new form, Arachne [[EatingTheEyeCandy becomes VERY aroused]] and the two begin mating right on the spot, in full view of the webbed-up X-men.

* Parodied on the ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' short "WesternAnimation/EatinOnTheCuff", where the spider trying to seduce the moth protagonist is [[AbhorrentAdmirer a middle-aged spinster]] with [[ButterFace a homely face]]. She disguises herself as a sultry Creator/VeronicaLake-like SweaterGirl, but her bangs can't effectively hide her GagNose.

* Sophia, the White Widow is a [[UpliftedAnimal Royal Monster]]: a classification of Monster who are raised by Cardinal or Vassal Heroes who was herself raised by a previous Vassal Whip Hero and becomes a part of Naofumi Iwatanis' party in ''Fanfic/FamilyOfTheShield''.

* Sophia, the White Widow is a [[AscendedAnimal Royal Monster]]: a classification of Monster who are raised by Cardinal or Vassal Heroes who was herself raised by a previous Vassal Whip Hero and becomes a part of Naofumi Iwatanis' party in ''Fanfic/FamilyOfTheShield''.

* In the film adaptation of ''Literature/JamesAndTheGiantPeach'', Miss Spider is portrayed as the ''femme fatale'' of the gang of arthropods (complete with a sultry French accent courtesy of voice actor Creator/SusanSarandon).

* The Japanese [[TsuchigumoAndJorogumo jorogumo]] as mentioned above, is the DistaffCounterpart of the tsuchigumo whose name translates to "binding bride" or even ''"whore spider"''. They are spiders who can shapeshift into a beautiful woman, usually [[LiteralManeater to eat people or feed them to their children]]. Sometimes for mating, [[DeathBySex sometimes both]].

* ''LightNovel/TsukimichiMoonlitFantasy'': Mio is coded as a hypersexual sado-masochist right from the start, moaning in pleasure while fighting against Makoto in her giant spider form, being so excited by her injuries and the taste of his blood that both he and Tomoe call her a "pervert". After the battle, she declares that she will follow Makoto and belong to him for the rest of her life, and repeatedly tries to coax him into bed with her.

* ''[[Manga/InterspeciesReviewers]]'' features an arachne-themed brothel, the "Archne's Nest", that styles itself as an 'escape dungeon' game where prospective men put in 500 gold and make their way through a webbed maze, which typically results in men hitting tripwires and getting carried off by the arachne ladies to a private room where sex ensues (men who somehow get through the maze without getting caught and carried off to have sex can reclaim their 500 gold bid). During Chapter 39, the Reviewers finally visit this place - Crim the angel was the first to be caught, but didn't like the experience since the arachne who grabbed him wasn't much for intimacy, while Zel the elf used a Decoy Doll spell he learnt from the Grand Mage Demia to turn the tables on the arachne that tried to jump him, and ''rode her'' to the private room on her back - his review later mentions how sensitive arachne legs are (due to how they use their legs to sense the vibration of the tripwires in their webs), and the arachne he turned the tables on was dominated by him instead.

* ''VideoGame/DragonAge'' has resident FemmeFatale and MsFanservice Morrigan, a shapeshifter who can turn into a giant black widow spider.

* ''ComicBook/{{Saga}}'': The Stalk. This dangerous ProfessionalKiller is a colleague of The Will, and also his ex-girlfriend. The Stalk has many grotesque and terrifying features, including an torso with no arms, a face with eight red eyes, an arachnid-shaped lower body, and hairy hand-like appendages at the end of each leg. She still manages to look attractive, perhaps because she [[WalkingShirtlessScene always goes topless]]. No wonder The Will still has feelings for her.

* ''LightNovel/MonsterGirlDoctor'':

While this comes into play with SpiderPeople, this can also apply to [[ArachnidAppearanceAndAttire a spider-themed character]]. Usually the character is a woman, due to the aforementioned [[TheVamp vamp]] traits and allusions of [[{{Dominatrix}} domination]] and [[UsefulNotes/{{BDSM}} bondage]] that [[AllWebbedUp webbing]] can be compared to.

* ''VideoGame/DiabloIII'': [[HornyDevils The Maiden of Lust]] is Cydaea, a demon woman with the body of a spider. Described as beautiful and grotesque, she tempts mortals [[DepravedBisexual of either gender]], [[CombatSadomasochist and takes pleasure in taking your hits]].

* ''VisualNovel/AtlachNacha'': [[VillainProtagonist Hatsune Hirasaka]] is a ''jorogumo'' named after [[Franchise/CthulhuMythos the Lovecraftian spider Great Old One]]. Given this is [[HGame an eroge]], she's less of an EldritchAbomination ([[HumanoidAbomination for the most part]]) and more a sexy [[HornyDevils succubus-like]] jorogumo. Unlike most, [[LesbianVampire she prefers women]].

* ''VideoGame/TheBlackHeart'' has Ananzi, a MsFanservice who wears a skin-tight suit [[ShesGotLegs with one leg exposed]]. She's also [[TheWormThatWalks actually made entirely of tiny spiders assembled into a humanoid shape]], and uses several spider-themed moves, such as sprouting four extra limbs from her back and making spider webs. Her Finishing Move has her turn into a GiantSpider that implants her young into the opponent after webbing them up, and when she turns back, her clothes are gone, leaving her naked.

* ''Series/{{Grimm}}'': Amongst the spider-like [[BeastMan Wesen]], the [[SpiderPeople Spinnetod]] (who from Nick's journals seem to be the inverse inspiration for the Tsuchigumo), females are always extremely attractive. However, they also suffer from an affliction where they shed their skin every five years or else will [[RapidAging prematurely age]]. As their skin doesn't naturally shed, they are forced to devour three males (either human or Wesen) over a span of several days to break through each layer, and traditionally go about doing so by seducing their prey into inviting them into a seclude location first.
