Spider

Spiders are enemies that appear in the original Crash Bandicoot game and as an obstacle in Crash Team Racing. They are large black and purple spiders that live dark areas and ancient ruins. In both games, they attack by descending from the ceiling on their web every few seconds, and then they rise back out of view. In Crash Bandicoot (video game), the spiders appear in Temple Ruins, Jaws of Darkness, and Fumbling in the Dark where they can be found in various places throughout the level. They appear in the Cortex Castle track in Crash Team Racing. When they are descending from the ceiling in this game, their shadow can be seen, which gives the racers a heads up when they are dropping. They also appear in the cut test level from Crash 1. In Crash Team Racing they can be defeated by some items.
