Probably the most vanilla enemy, but still annoying.
can its shadow effect be used to discard one attachment that was placed in one of your heroes from the encounter deck? for example Caught in a Web (Core)?
Rules say "Players always assume control of attachments that have been played on their characters".

No, since encounter cards are an exception:

(1.06) Control of Non-objective Encounter Cards
Players do not gain control of encounter cards unless control of the card is explicitly granted by a card effect. When an encounter card (such as Caught in a Web, CORE 86) becomes an attachment and attaches to a character, that character’s controller does not gain control of the attachment.

ah I missed that part on the FAQ, thanks. Annoying spider indeed.
