Is it true that spiders crawl into human mouths during sleep?
No. One retrieved source directly addresses the claim and states the idea that people swallow spiders in their sleep is an utter fabrication, tracing it to a 1993 magazine hoax. The remaining items are unrelated to spiders entering human mouths.
