My guide assured me that the literally thousands of insects sitting motionlessly on the walls were just crickets…but for some reason, this didn’t make it all better.

    Yeah, those look like cave crickets, which are obviously not normal, run-of-the-mill crickets, but are crickets nonetheless. They like dark, damp places (hence the name), so tunnels would be perfect for them.

    But *geeyaaaaah* nonetheless…
