Daddy long leg escaping the cold

I saw a daddy long leg while cleaning up the bathroom. He hung off the ceiling. I figured he came in out of the cold.

A little google information:
They are not spiders. They are arachnids and closer to the scorpion family.
They don’t produce silk.
They have one pair of eyes.
They are known only as daddy long legs.

A nice shot of this interesting creature!

Lovely shot and edit. This is a spider. A daddy long-legs spider (Pholcus phalangioides) is very small and has very long legs. He lives with people. Its characteristic behavior is an unusual defensive strategy in which the spider, feeling threatened, makes rapid circular movements, which causes the web to vibrate very quickly, which makes the animal virtually invisible. By its appearance, it can be confused with daddy longlegs - harvestmen (Opiliones). Note that your guest's, like all spiders, the cephalothorax can be distinguished from the abdomen. In hervertmen, the two parts are closely adjacent and indistinguishable.
