This creepy spider with a weird design on its butt is a Triangulate Cobweaver, Steatoda triangulosa. It isn’t dangerous to people. They eat insects and other spiders. They avoid contact with people who insult them and hide in enclosed dark places to avoid being seen.

Definitely Triangulated Cobweb Spider. Family Theridiidae Genus Steatoda or False Widow and species Steatoda triangulosa. They make messy webs and as mentioned above like dark enclosed places. They aren’t medically significant to humans as mentioned above.
