Isn’t it bliss? Don’t you approve?
One who keeps tearing around and one who can’t move
But where are the clowns? Send in the clowns
Don’t bother, they’re here.
I always thought this song was a trifle creepy, but in light of this story it just got creepier.
If someone were trying to lure childhood me into the woods for nefarious purposes, the very last costume they should be wearing is that of a clown. As a child I was frightened of clowns…and clowns waving big wads of cash would have sent me running in the opposite direction.
It’s an internet spawned prank that is going viral. If it continues, sooner or later someone is going to get hurt. Walking down the street or standing on a corner dressed as a clown is one thing. Luring children into woods, or chasing people with weapons, even if you don’t really intend any harm, is different. It’s stupid, dangerous, and illegal.
Worst horror movie director ever, Rob Zombie, has a new film called “31” coming out on the 16th. Since it’s about carnival workers, I have no doubt that evil clowns are involved. Or that they may be a connection between that and all these so-called creepy disturbances. You just really can’t put anything past a bunch of fanboys.
No, they will quietly slip through Virginia and work their way up the coast to Connecticut. Some will appear in California and Colorado, pursuing the alliteration. Gods help us when they make it to Kentucky and Kansas.
