I think the spiders are the Anuk-ite's manifested form. Like how the Nogitsune was a fox spirit but could take the form of a fly. We saw one of the spiders try to enter Theo but when he removed it, it vanished in a puff of smoke. I think maybe the Anuk-ite was able to manifest fear through the body of Faceless body of Aaron the same way it projected fear at Eichen to keep Deaton from discovering that piece of stone with a carving of it.
