Eleven-year-old Hunter Steel searches for the legendary inner world by following the instructions in his grandfather's journal.

A spider startles Hunter, who falls into a hole to the center of the Earth and into the subterranean world of Arachna.

The warriors are children, each fighting with the help of their own 10 ft (3.0 m) battle spiders.
