Salamander

We have two windows to the basement next to our patio outside.  We have found some crazy things in there in the year and a half that we have lived here.  Most of the time, the rustling leaves sound comes from a very large cricket crawling around inside.  However, we have found a few mice, a couple garden snakes, and now this thing.  It has been raining for about two days now and it is wet and miserable outside.  I saw this thing, which I assume is some sort of salamander, clinging to the screen on the window.  It looks cool but I was somewhat grossed out.

So I googled salamander and found out that this is supposed to be a "spotted salamander." However, this thing was huge! I'm sure they get that big but seriously it was a bit odd to find it chillin' next to my house.
