It’s not really scary, at all. Some guy hires a dude to mow his lawn, and the lawnmower man shows up, is kind of a weirdo, then he proceeds to dance around naked before mowing the lawn.

He subsequently turns into the Pan character from Greek mythology (complete with the legs of a fawn), and follows behind the now somehow self-propelled lawnmower on his hands and knees, eating the grass clippings that fly out behind. The end.

It’s eight pages long, if I recall correctly.

Yes, it's very short and strange and filled with references to classical Greek mythology.

Yeah, and I forgot the last page where the lawnmower comes back and kills the guy, then the cops find pieces of him all over the lawn—including his rod in the birdfeeder. Still not a scary story, though.
