Creepy (5)

I believe the answer is:

eerie

'creepy' is the definition.
(eerie can mean strange or creepy)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for eerie that I've seen before include "Bloodcurdling" , "Ghostly" , "Spooky, creepy" , "Strange and disturbing" , "Frighteningly odd" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today, the King Feature Syndicate, the Penny Press, the LA Times, The Star Tribune and The Telegraph.
