What causes the horrible skin crawling sensation after looking at something unpleasant?

I wondered what exactly causes this? For example when I look at clusters of holes (trypophpbia) or nasty mold I have a feeling like my skin is crawling, it’s almost itchy.

Many years ago, I was home alone at night. All of a sudden, on the far end of the living room, I see a spider crawling away. I am terrified of spiders.

What follows is probably the stupidest moment of my life.

I see the spider crawling, I see it so far away from me, and yet I immediately believe (for some reason) that is it actually crawling on me. I scream my eyes out, rip my t-shirt off me and throw it away from me.

It lands on the floor. The spider didn’t even take notice, it was way too far away, and disappears. I, a shirtless idiot, is still standing there, speechless, wondering what just happened.
