Very very dead.

The term house spider is funny. If a spider is in your car, is it a car spider?

This looks to be some sort of mygalomorph.

I was referencing where I found it. I just can't tell if it is a Loxosceles reclusa or not?

Give one of our experts a couple of minutes with it and a magnifying glass then probable genus, possible species.

Most certainly not.

It's one of the trapdoor spiders, likely Myrmekiaphila

Nope. Defiantly not. Also, I’m aware of you referencing where it was found, but I still like to joke.

Here’s what Loxosceles reclusa looks like:

The eyes are different; 3 pairs of 2, the legs have no large hairs and the ‘violin’ type pattern is different.
