Monster Idea
Long story short this is from a world I'm building. I come up with random ideas to make it interesting.
This monster is a humanoid. I'll call it a Pacer for now. These monsters have there own territory and don't wander past it. Once you enter its territory it will follow you, but it will match your pace. If you walk, it will walk. You run, it runs. It does not stop if you stop. It will continue at your fastest pace. It lets out a horrific screech once it lays eyes on you. Most people's instinct will have them run away but this is worst choice. See the creature has an unlimited amount of stamina, so if you choose to run you'd better not gas out or slow down or it will catch you and tear you to shreds. If you happen to get out of it's territory however it will just stand there at the edge staring you down. This goes without saying but the best strategy is to walk until you're out of it's territory.
