It’s September. The time for children to go back to school, the shops to put up their Christmas decorations and spiders to enter our homes. Big, hairy, man-eating spiders. You may laugh at this description, but I think it is fair and accurate.
I visited my Mum’s last night for tea. We ate in the extension on the side of her house. I was cooked a very nice meal. What wasn’t very nice, was my Mum forgetting to inform me that a very large spider had been spotted in the extension the previous evening. Maybe it was a good thing that I wasn’t told. I certainly wouldn’t have eaten in the extension, had I known, and would have considered even visiting the house at all!
Last night, when I was safely home, my Mum posted a photo of the biggest spider I have ever seen, on Facebook. It was huge. If she had a pet cat, it would have made a delicious meal… for the spider! What’s worse, is it was my wife, Claire, who showed me the Facebook post – I was tucked up in bed – the place you never, ever, ever want to encounter a spider; so just seeing the beast on her phone screen freaked me out a bit.
I won’t post the photo on my blog, as I don’t want to see it every time I check my website – or subject it to any of my readers.

Most of the stories I post on my blog are about me, which, unsurprisingly, is why the website is called Sean's Stories.
In a change to the norm, today I'll be telling a tale from my mum - mainly because it is as funny as it is horrific.
A few weeks ago, my mum woke up to... - Roman’s Pet Spider
It is said that people learn fears. I didn't believe that it was possible to catch fears, although it appears you can!
Anyone who knows me well or has read this blog for any length of time, will know that I suffer from a phobia of spiders.
I don't know when this fear began. It was certainly... - Snug As A Bug
People say that you should never tempt fate, and this is something that I may have inadvertently done, in writing Wednesday's blog, about the girl with the spider hoody.
Yesterday afternoon, I was lying in bed, following an enjoyable few hours spent downstairs with Claire and Roman.
Back in bed, my feet were getting hot, so Claire... - The Hangover From Hell
In today's blog, I am going to tell you of one of the most horrific and frightening stories, I have ever had the displeasure of reading.
No, it isn't Boris Johnson's 2020 Manifesto. Although that is terrifying, this tale is far scarier!
Take a look at the photo below. What do you see? A woman in a... - I’ve Had Better Days: Part 2
The clocks have now gone back, I had a good night's sleep and have now settled down to blog the second installment of my Friday Frights, while Claire watches Liverpool play Spurs.
Where did we finish off last night? Oh yes, I had cleaned Neil Warnock and nursed him back to full, loud health. No idea...
About Me
So you stumbled across my blog. No doubt after searching for something bizarre on Google. Before you hit that 'Back Button', why not stay and have a read for a few minutes?
If you are after a website which gives advice on how to hack an iPhone X, download the latest Steven Seagal movie, or view nudy ladies, you've come to the wrong place and may now press 'Back'.
However, if you would like a lifestyle blog, written by a 30-something chap, living in Bath (England), feast your eyes on this.
You won't discover how to copy PlayStation 4 games. What you will find is a blog, covering life in the West Country, the highs and lows of supporting two unsuccessful football teams, while sharing a house with a wife and rabbit.
All written by a man, somewhere on the sanity-scale between normal and eccentric.
