A huge 6ft wide Halloween spider decoration has left neighbours freaked out.

The giant fake arachnid was placed over a hedge a month before the spooky season.

Olivia Lloyd, 25, was driving to the Post Office when she pulled up to the main road and was left terrified.

The communications manager admitted she nearly drove into the curb after spotting the enormous tarantula-style spider.

On her return, she made her way up and down the road a few times to get a proper look at the monster creature.

Olivia likened the decoration to the fictional spider Aragog from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

It was spotted in Desford, near Leicester, as reported by What’s The Jam.

Olivia said: “I nearly drove into the curb.

“I thought to myself, it’s not Halloween yet.

“The sun’s shining, why on earth has this property got a giant tarantula sitting on their hedge facing the road.

“They’re not due to film another Harry Potter are they? Has Aragog escaped Hogwarts?

“This is the first time I’ve seen this decoration and I’ve lived locally for five years.

“It seems to creep most people out, I think some even avoid driving down that road now.

“Perhaps the owners needed a bit of excitement in their lives.

“It was honestly so realistic, they’ll definitely be winning any Halloween competitions this year that’s for sure.”

Another local Tyla Micheala, said: “It scared me to death the first time I saw it.”

One added: “I had the exact same reaction in the village, nearly did an emergency brake with the jump scare.”
