Guessing it's a brown recluse???? It fell on me inside my house from the ceiling.

I don’t know what that is but it’s not a brown recluse. Why do people always assume any brown spider they find in their house is a recluse?

I don’t know it either, it has the shape of a Jumping Spider. Not a Brown Recluse or any other potentially dangerous spider. There are only a few species of spider with dangerous venom, it is easy to rule them out.

Looks like parasteatoda or red spider… which are harmless house spiders… brown recluse have a distinct violin shape on them.
