    A Monty Python-esque giant boot that comes out of nowhere & squishes him... It's the only thing to do to a spider ;) 
     
    I think in terms of 'horror' then there's a lot, but it would be gruesome.  Horrible stuff that involve mutilation, usually.  I don't tend to think of Spider-Man as a 'horror' type of comic (although the amount of characters who've come back from the dead might count as zombies). 
     
    For Spidey, if he was powerless & therefore unable to protect his friends & family then that would be a giant nightmare for him.  That said, I think having the perfect life in the House of M... and then having all that stolen from him... and remembering it.  Yeah, that's got to be a horrific thing for anyone to live through.

    " The spider wasp is the most efficient spider-killer in the insect kingdom. Its sting quickly subdues its prey by paralyzing the spider's central nervous system. But it does not kill the spider all at once. The spider wasp carries its prey to its nest, or if the spider is too large to carry in flight, the wasp simply drags it to the nest. In order to make the spider easier to drag, some spider wasps bite off the spider's legs, often drinking the blood that leaks form the wounds. The spider wasp places a single spider in each nest, which is often constructed after catching the prey."

    To Peter it would be to see his loved ones hurt because he decided to be selfish. Y know throw his costume in the garbage one to many times and have Carnage find the suit on and then go on a killing spree new York has never seen before while in his suit. Peter's worst nightmare I think 
     
    As a reader I think to witness Spidey just get a horrific beat down with no one coming to help him. to wek to fight  stronger opponent and nothing he can do about it

    Visualize Peter being sacrificed to Kthl, Yot-Soter, Shuma-Gorath and Nyerlathortech (a.k.a. The Many-Angled Ones) by Aunt May in a manner similar to this and you have my answer.

    Spiderman mutates into a giant man-spider that shoots webs from his butt and then eats his loved ones (i.e. Aunt May).

      The scariest thing that can happen to Spider-Man is him growing up.  Just ask Joe Quesada, he would agree.

    His worst nightmare is of course having another Uncle Ben or Gwen Stacey moment; loosing someone he loves because of something he did or didn't do. That's why he is Spider-Man after all.

    I think his worst nightmare might be something that's already happened, which is Back in Black, having his Aunt May murdered. But what would be even scarier would probably be someone who hunts not only Spider-Man down after learning his secret identity, but everyone he loves, torturing them, one by one, slowly, before his eyes, until he is finally shot in front of them (his loved ones aren't murdered yet, just tortured). Then the loved ones are shot.
     
    Yep. I'm a sadist.

    If Eddie Brock had killed Aunt May in "The Last Temptation Of Eddie Brock", with Peter in the building at the time, I imagine that would have been an incredible guilt trip to go through. Especially since he wasn't in her room, no, he was busy with Madame Web trying to think of stupid ways to bring her back, when he should have been spending her last few moments together.

    Spidey's greatest fear is probably to see all of the mistakes he's made and all of the deaths of his loved ones over and over and over etc.
