This needs some clarification to answer. Is it about a quarter to three-quarter inches long? Does it have a more slender body?
If so, please stay away from it! There is a possibility it is a brown recluse spider.
The brown recluse has what is called a "fiddleback" on its cephelothorax. It is a dark brown/black line, basically. Also, the brown recluse has only six eyes, which makes it distinct from most other Spiders. In all actuality, if you can make out either of those distinctive features, you are way too close to it.
A brown recluse bite isn't always felt upon first being bitten. The venom they produce causes necrosis, or flesh death. Basically, around where you were bitten, your skin dies and you have giant lesions of flesh. There is no known antivenin.
I have seen this spider also, and have had no luck finding it on the web. Please post back here if you find any information. The spider I saw had a white box on its underside, with a black spade in it. I found this spider in Branson, Mo. Where was your spider?
This is a Yellow Sac Spider. They usually reach the size of a quarter and are nocturnal predators that will eat any kind of insect.

Tarantulas are known for their intricate funnel-shaped webs, but there are species of spider such as the Wolf Spider who's web is funnel shaped as well. More than likely the spider is not dangerous, but it depends on the species of the spider you're dealing with. A common spider in the pacific northwest that create a funnel like web are the hobo spider. It can not kill you but their venom is rather potent. It can dissolve the skin surrounding the bite if the bite is not treated correctly. They are large, and the hobo is larger than the brown, and the hobo is also more dangerous. In addition to greater size, it has greater speed and the venom is more potent ------------------------- The spider he's talking about is the Sydney Funnel-Web which can kill a human within 40 minutes of the time of the bite. & The Hobo spider is not the spider that dissolves skin, the Brown Recluse is the one that dissolves skin.

If you have almond shaped eyes, the color eye makeup that you should wear include gray, brown and green. Apply shadow to the outer corner in a thin line and gradually allow it to thicken as you get to the center. Apply two coats of mascara.
