Johnny always fed the spider a peanut, hoping it wouldn't eat him. This seemed to work, for awhile. One night, though, the spider was really hungry and it ate him anyway, swallowing him whole. Now Johnny lives in the spider and he's lonely. He wants someone to play with and talk to. That's why he's hiding under your bed, inside the spider, just waiting…so he won't be lonely anymore.
