No, horseshoe crabs are not dangerous. I use to think the same thing until I found out more about them. Although it does look kind of scary they are harmless. The tail is only used for steering through the sand while underwater and to direct movements. The mouth is located between the legs so if you decide to carry it be gentle because it could pinch you but that's about it.
