Is this creapy guy a tick?

This morning I was laying in bed, thinking how itchy I was & how I felt like I was being bit. I'm always itchy, so didn't think much of it. A few hrs later I was getting dressed & took of my pj bottoms & saw something reddish on my knee. I swipped it off of me (thought maybe I had cut myself shaving). I looked down & there was this creapy guy. The 1st thought I had was a tick, but I'm not sure it could just be some type of spider. Either way I'm creaped out that he was on me & who knows for how long. I have him in tupperware right now to show my hubby when he comes home. I think I'm going to google ticks.
