An arachnophobic woman plagued by nightmares about spiders since
she was little attempts to feign a normal existence while working a
mundane job. But no matter how hard she tries, eight-legged shadows
lurk in the recesses of her mind, torturing her and sending her
spiraling downward into the abyss of lunacy. When an encounter with
a tarantula triggers a psychotic break, she lands in a halfway
house inhabited by others whose broken psyches insinuate themselves
into her slow climb out of hell. Bisecting these threads are the
messages of Tarantula Woman, who enters through the cracks in her
psyche to whisper wisdom and guide her through her own
subconscious. As her history is recast, her housemates redefine the
meaning of lucidity and Tarantula Woman continues to tease, push,
and enlighten her. Hotel Tarantula is a story of extreme phobia as
a young woman is forced to rely on the spidery voice inside her
head for insight as she attempts to claw her way back to sanity.
