Spooky & Monster stuff mixes surprisingly well with Spider-Man. I remember reading that story with Spiders stalking Peter, whatwashisname - The Thousand? Fun read. Also Lizard, Venom, Carnage, Vermin are basically Monsters.
The six arm saga is a pretty good spooky story in itself. Isolated and nearly abandoned Summer mansion, Morbius, the Lizard, six-arm spidey....

I think the reason spooky and monster stuff mix so well with Spider-Man is that under the wrong circumstances, his origin story could have easily been the start of a horror story, and the only reason it didn't turn out like that was Peter being confronted early enough with the consequences of power used selfishly and irresponsibly in the form of the thief who killed his Uncle Ben, whom he'd previously dismissed as not being his problem.
The spider is always on the hunt.
Spooky and supernatural stuff was more or less Todd MacFarlane's pitch for his adjectiveless Spidey book back in the 90's, wasn't it?
"The White Queen welcomes you, TO DIE!"
Weren't the 90's a spooky age a bit? I remember few stories like Torment being pretty creepy.
First issue was great! Interested to see where this goes.
