many of these spiders Pholcidae Pholcus phalangioides or opilionoides live in my room. they are able to live in a very dry environment so they are often found in houses and they can reach 3 years of age!

spider (Pholcus) eating one of my lasius niger. whirling: for defense the spiders camouflage by whirling their bodies around with the legs firmly attached to the net. zittern in german. to an observer this obscures the spider from sigth, making them almost invisible . you may stimulate the whirling by touching the web or the spider.
