Is there any way to narrow this down to genus? I am assuming it is related to the Common House Spider (Parasteatoda tepidariorum) because of behaviour and shape. Maybe Steatoda?

The camera did not catch it, but I saw that the legs were a lighter color than the abdomen, more of a brown with darker spots. The abdomen does not have the markings of the P. tepidariorum. I could not see any with the naked eye, or regardless of flash or not when taking photos. There very well could be some.

Thank you for your help. No need to mention the prey, I am very familiar with that thing.
