So there was a spider in my kitchen and I hit it twice with a shoe but then it fell behind the oven. Is there a possibility that it is still alive? I don’t have the courage to bring forth the oven to search for it as I am terrified of spiders and that was the biggest one I’ve ever encountered. Any advice on what to do next?

The most likely thing it will have done is run to safety - it's probably gone upstairs to a bedroom. Possibly yours. It'll most likely come out from behind the wardrobe or under the bed during the dead of night.
Bake it a nice apple pie in the oven to show it you are truly sorry that you hit it. And with any luck the heat from the oven will kill it if your shoe hasn’t done the job already. In which case you’ll have a nice apple pie to enjoy yourself. I don’t see how you can lose this deal.
Update: word of what you done is out on the interwebz. If your spider senses are tingling, it may be because it’s brothers and sisters* are coming to demand justice.

Large Spiders are like Bosses in Video games, They harbour large HP's and seldom can be beaten with one hit.
From experience, I'd also say it is probably still alive. I'm the type of person who can't rest knowing there's a sizeable spider in house and will go searching for it. Even though I have a slight phobia for them.
From experience as well, If you try and kill a spider ....and you fail ...and it gets away, it tends to remember the attempt on it's life and hold a grudge. It may try to attack humans the next time it encounters them and instead of running away from them like before start running towards them aggressively looking for revenge.
You will probably have to get married and make sure your spouse deals with it. This is the single biggest reason for non-pregnant people to get married these days.
Oh my god, my sister reassured me that it’s dead and I calmed down but reading this brought back the stress. The oven was on when the spider fell so is there a possibility that the heat killed it? That’s what I thought... I’ll probably wait for my dad to get home and move the oven but I’m afraid he’ll think I’m paranoid and not check...
Unfortunately no, she can’t check because she has a back problem and can’t move the oven. I’m also too weak to move an entire oven and also will probably faint if I see the spider. What if it isn’t there? I’m actually terrified to step into the kitchen knowing that there’s a monster there
Presumably you are unaware that the average British home has about a hundred different species of spider in it. Obviously there will be rather more than one of each of those species.
