Answer 1

If you live in Southern or Western US, chances are high that it may be a brown recluse.

A getting bitten by one of those is not good thing. This guy got a reaction and the place where he got bitten, his back, made him lose a ton of skin, and it wont grow back. So now he has to wear pads over it and when he takes it off, its all reddish...

there was another set of pictures of someone who got bitten on his thumb, during surgery they had to spluit his thumb open.

Answer 2

It could be a brown recluse which is dangerous and looks very much like one.  I can't see it well enough to be sure.

Answer 3

Possibly a daddy longlegs the pic is not big enough

Answer 4

If you had a better picture, it would be easier to tell but it looks like a Brown Recluse which are very dangerous. Be careful!

Answer 5

Not nearly enough detail in your pic to tell for sure.

But I think it is likely a Running Crab Spider. According to the link below, "One distinguishing characteristic of the running crab spiders is their legs: unlike crab spiders in the family Thomisidae, the Philodromids' second set of legs are the longest. These spiders are often found indoors, living in the corners of ceilings and walls." Both of these statements describe your spider, the second pair of legs are elongated, and your spider is not in a web but is roaming the ceiling and walls. Here is a pic of the Running Crab Spider:
