You could also bridge off the current recepticle and go back up the wall, over the top, and down the wall in the closet. Then just add a old work 1 gang box and you'll have a regular outlet in your closet. A little more work, but a lot safer and up to code.

True. Thanks for the idea. This is doable since I don't have to cut the wall and can access the walls easily since I'm upstairs. Awesome.
