Black widow spiders are dark-colored variants of spider capable of shooting webs, serving as obstacles and then as mounts in Minecraft Mini-Series.

Appearance

The Black Widow Spider looks like a normal spider, but has three yellow eyes on its face, the rest on the top of its head, a red symbol on its abdomen, and blue pedipalps.

Behavior

Black Widow spiders are usually hostile to humans, and attack them by jumping on walls and shooting webs; however, Durango was able to tame them, although this was never explained in the series.
