They sense large, moving objects as threats, so your frantic movements trigger their instinct to flee, explains Quora users and Reddit users, notes Reddit users. 

Can spiders hear humans?

Yes, spiders can "hear" humans and other sounds from a distance, not with ears, but by using sensitive hairs on their legs that detect airborne vibrations and subtle changes in air pressure, allowing them to sense sounds like talking or clapping from several meters away.

While not a true purr like a cat's, it's an airborne sound produced by vibrations for communication, a unique form of animal signaling where the female detects the vibrations rather than the sound itself.
