Question: What kind of spider has a big black body with long red legs?

Answer: I think what you may have are wolf spiders (Family: Lycosidae).

Without a specimen, it is hard to determine the true identification. These spiders are usually large and ”hairy” (their legs will have long hairs on them). These spiders are coming to your house searching for food, insects.
