We have an Arachnid section, and to feel like "cobwebs" your walking through, we just use simple old thin fishing line tied from above- you can hardly see it in the light, and not at all in the dark. and can totally feel it when you walk through it!
However, in addition to feathers and wigs, what about fur? I'm thinking a 1/4" dowel rod of whatever length, with a 1/4" diameter expension spring on the end so it's flexible. Cover with fur, or bubble wrap, or whatever to give it an unnerving texture.
Something I was thinking of making myself is taking a dowel rod and/or an extension spring and making tendrils out of sislicone. Just squirt the silicone onto the end and make a bead as long as your tendril. Maybe even reinforce a vertain length with wire. That should be interesting.
I would worry about a thin dowel breaking from someone panicking, and becoming a stab hazard. Similarly with a thick dowel being something for someone to run into hard and get a bruise.
We have this idea of mounting a 2x4 to one of the walls in between our rat/dead exterminator room & our spider room--low, like ankle/calve-height--drilling holes in it and gluing in long, thin, pliable tubing, so people will feel like they're walking through rat tails. Haven't attempted to excecute it yet, so I don't know if it will be successful.
