Killer Idea: The Closet Monster

The Closet Monster
[Description: Tall dark shadowy figure with glowing red eyes...]

Power: It's just the dark
[Outside of a locker: non-chase]
The killer can instantly move to the closest locker in the direction he is facing. (right mouse click) This could be instant or about .25 second animation of the killer taking a dark orb shape and quickly moving to the locker (think Gastly but much smaller making it difficult for the survivor to see him while moving)
[Inside of a locker: non-chase]
MOVING
The killer has the ability to move from locker to locker. While inside of a locker another locker's aura is highlighted and the killer can instantly move to that locker (left mouse click). The killer can choose which locker to move to via the direction of the camera and using the W key and the S key to cycle through the different (distance) options available in that direction and the A key and D key to move left and right.
EXITING
The killer slowly exits the locker (about 3 seconds) using the space key. This animation shows the door slowly creeping open with a dark hand coming out to grab the door and reveal dark red eyes that have a certain glow to them. If the killer is near a survivor when exiting he gets a small speed boost. This does not cause the speed boost to go on cool-down.

[Outside of a locker: chase]
MOVING
The killer can instantly move to the closest locker in the direction he is facing. (right mouse click)
The killer can instantly move to the closest locker near his victim that he is chasing. (space key) This can be repeated for the duration of the chase time + 3 seconds.
EXITING
[Inside of a locker: chase]
The killer burst out of the locker within .5 seconds and gets a small speed boost. 10 second cool-down. (space key)

If the killer moves to a locker with a survivor inside of it he immediately grabs them and exits the locker with them being picked up onto his shoulder. (as if he opened the locker with them inside)

ADD-ONs
Have not thought to much about add-ons yet.
possibilities include:
1) Reveals the auras of survivors inside of a locker.
2) When exiting a locker near a survivor their aura is revealed to you for (arbitrary amount) of seconds.
3) When moving to a locker reveal the 2/3/4 closest survivors near you for 3/5/7 seconds.
or maybe these are closer to perks? What do you guys think? What kind of perks would you give this type of killer?

This killer would chase survivors and then jump from locker to locker. Then when the survivor believes the chase has ended he would slowly creep out of a closet (locker) to get them! or in more intense fashion teleport to the closest locker and BOOM! jump out to continue the chase!
