I used to live in Limerick, Maine and every summer 1-2 of these nasty creatures would show up on the side of the house. They ran really fast, and were black/brown in color. The abdomen was much bigger than a quarter. They were much bigger than anything I've ever seen. We've searched the entire internet and haven't found anything like it.
