| | '''Spideraticus''' is a gigantic spider boss whom Wario must defeat at the end of [[Beanstalk Way]] during the events of ''[[Wario World]]''. The arena consists of a network of roots of a tree with Spideraticus's giant spider web taking up about 80% of the stage. Wario cannot jump while on the web, so he must stay on the outside until an opportunity to attack arises. |

| '''Spideraticus''' is a gigantic spider boss whom [[Wario]] must defeat at the end of [[Beanstalk Way]] during the events of ''[[Wario World]]''. Spideraticus is a large black spider with a brown abdomen. It wears a green military helmet on its head, partially obscuring its eyes, and wears combat boots on each of its feet. A bandage is present on top of both the helmet and its abdomen. The arena consists of a network of tree roots with Spideraticus's giant spider web taking up most of the stage. Wario cannot jump while on the web, so he must stay on the outside until an opportunity to attack arises. | |

|
| Spideraticus uses five attacks during its boss fight: | | Spideraticus has quite a few attacks. The first is a shockwave attack that must be jumped. When Spideraticus has two or less health skulls remaining, he adds another, faster shockwave. The spider boss's second attack is to fire homing bursts at Wario. Again, the lower Spideraticus's health, the more bursts are shot. |
| #A close-ranged bite attack. Spideraticus will only use this attack if Wario is close.
| |
| #A thin, transparent string of web shot at Wario. If it connects, it will pull Wario into range of its bite attack. To avoid damage, the player must dash to break the silk.
| |
| #A shockwave attack that must be jumped over. When Spideraticus has two or less health skulls remaining, it adds another, faster shockwave.
| |
| #Homing bursts fired at Wario. The lower Spideraticus's health, the more bursts are shot. The final shot always remains for a longer time.
| |
| #Five [[Glue Globe]]s shot out of its mouth and sucked back in one by one. This provides Wario with the only opening to attack the boss by latching onto one of the Glue Globes, jumping off of it when Spideraticus sucks it in, and [[Ground Pound]]ing Spideraticus's vulnerable top.

|
| Spideraticus is the second of the three bosses of [[Thrillsville]], preceded by the [[Winter Windster]] and succeeded by [[Red-Brief J]]. | | Third, Spideraticus could shoot five [[Glue Globe]]s at Wario, suck them in one by one and bite Wario if he gets stuck on one. It is this attack that gives Wario a chance to attack. Finally, Spideraticus may bite Wario is he gets too close. Spideraticus may shoot a small, almost invisible web at Wario to bring him in closer for a bite. If Wario got caught, he must dash away to free himself from the sticky string. |

| | In order to defeat him, [[Wario]] had to grab a Glue Globe that the arachnid shot out, hang onto it and, when close enough, jump off it and [[Ground Pound]] his head. Then Wario had to use a [[Piledriver]], [[Wild Swing-Ding]], or [[Power Throw]] to damage the spider boss. After repeating five times, this mini-boss gave way, leading to the big Boss, [[Red-Brief J]]. |
