For those with arachnophobia, don’t worry. This creepy crawler wags its tail.

The video of a dog wearing a giant spider costume and terrorizing a town has gone viral, with almost 6 million page views in just a day.

The Daily Mail reports that the spider dog spoof is the work of Polish prankster Sylwester Wardega. Last year, a video of him playing jokes on the local police went viral (and got him into a bit of trouble).

Now he’s stirring up scares and laughs with a black Labrador retriever in a furry spider costume.

Chica the DogSpider chases after victims down dark and deserted streets, attacks someone in an elevator, and spins webs in a park and other areas around town. Props used to depict body parts of victims are seen hanging from webs made of string.

But Chica isn't really a monster. She looks downright sweet and adorable on her Facebook fan page.

Check out the video below. (Viewer discretion advised for mild gore.)
