It is a female Camel Cricket
Probably in the genus Ceuthophilus. These are pretty harmless, but could nibble on something you don't want it to (they are scavengers). They like cool dark places and often live in sheds, garages, under houses, etc. She might have come up for a peak :0)

Moved from ID Request.
