Description

"The dark form ran toward him with incredible swiftness. When it came near he saw that there was a kind of face on the squat ebon body, low down amid the several-jointed legs. The face peered up with a weird expression of doubt and inquiry; and terror crawled through the veins of the bold huntsman as he met the small, crafty eyes that were circled about with hair."

- Clark Ashton Smith, The Seven Geases

This is a pretty decent portrayal. "The face peered up with a weird expression of doubt and inquiry" implies that there is something grotesquely human-like about its features and you included that in your version.
