The spiders of storybooks and Halloween all seem to hang out in large, circular webs. While many spiders do, of course, spin webs of silk, some spiders build no webs at all. The hunting spiders, which include wolf spiders, jumping spiders, and trapdoor spiders among others, pursue their prey rather than entrap them in a web. It is true, however, that all spiders produce silk, even if they don't use it to build webs.
