Something you are or are not going, ie environmental issues - who knows

Ventilation issues? While Asian arboreals do need a lot of substrate moisture and high ambient humidity (to reduce water loss throughout the cuticle) they also need good ventilation (not necessarily cross-ventilation, but airflow of some sort that [revents stagnation while not drying out the enclosure too much)

Loosing 8 tarantulas near one another is a for sure environmental and husbandry problem. Make sure you have not introduced any chemicals to them while doing feeding or maintenance. This was my first thought. Either that or your husbandry conditions are just really unhealthy for them. Make sure of either of these ASAP!

sounds like you know the cause. "Very wet substrate and high humidity" over extended periods of time is recipe for death. Try to take better care to not do that moving forward.
