Googled that, couldn't find it I did find Chelicerae which seems like it sounds the same?

"Chelicerae" is doubtless correct. Spelling (esp. Latin & Greek) was never my strong suit, and I was attempting to write the sound "kel-ess-sors", the spider equivalent of mammalian      "fangs"  These structures would surely be completely terrifying, as would spiders in general, were they much larger !!

You are correct - while googling I found many images and ... well, let's say vampires aren't as scary now as they used to be ("Huh, you call *those* fangs?")
