Insect and Spider Identification: CLOSED: SE Missouri: Tiny stick-like insect, 1 by bachamn

I found this little guy crawling around on a potted plant in my office. I left him there and over the next two days a co-worker found him crawling on the wall across the room. He's only about 1cm in length, with bright red eyes, and very long antennae which he rears back when threatened as if to mimic limbs. When feeling overly threatened (ie when I tried to slide a piece of paper under him to take pic ) he curls all his limbs into a ball like a spider. I assume because of its size that I have a baby here, and to me it looks like some sort of stick insect but I can't seem to find any similar photos on the web to identify, which led me here. Can anyone help with this one? Thanks
