I will kill anything that scares me.
Oh I know what that is. That's just a male stag beetle. They hiss only to frighten off potential predators. They are harmless, but their their jaws can give you a little pinch if you annoy them.
If you find one in your house you should probably get the wood inspected. They live in dead wood.
