Black spider with white markings - Castianeira
Salem, Polk County, Oregon, USA

This guy moves fast! I thought I'd be able to trap him after taking a picture, but he escaped under the door. I'm a bit concerned to have him loose in the house.

Moved for review
Moved from ID Request. Leaning Castianeira but having a hard time ruling out Herpyllus propinquus. Either one is harmless (but admittedly fast).

 
I agree ...
with Castianeira, the pattern almost looks like C. thalia.
