Creepy Clowns - fun or stupidity?

Jobless, single twenty four years old Dave from Manchester woke up with hangover as he was partying the whole previous night, better closed his eyes and started thinking… „What am I gonna do today? Just to roam with my mates, smoke weed? No, it is pretty boring. Ohhh, I almost forgot, my clown costume was delivered and it is waiting for me at the post office! Yeah, I will have some fun with it.!" Well, unfortunately there are many - sorry to say it - IDIOTS, who lately appeared wearing clown costumes and enjoy scaring people, including little kids. Creepy clowns with knives, chansaw, machette running after you and trying to catch you or just standing on the roads at night. Is this funny? Can you tell me, who can do this? The profile of a guy I intentionally described above match perfectly, don't you think so? I guess some people just forgot that every prank has its limits.

You know, some days ago my six years old son was at night totally frightened and didn't want to fall asleep. I came to him and asked him what happened? He said: Mom, one boy at school was telling us that there are clowns walking in the city, scaring and killing the kids. He saw it on TV it was in the news and I am so scared!!!" At this time I didn't know anything about this, so I told him: !Come on.. he just saw some movie and it wasnt anything real, ok?" What was my surprise, when I saw the very next day news with the headlines such as: Trend of the Killer Clowns came from the USA to Europe! Of course, they weren't behind my door, however I felt like what should I tell my son? Yesterday TV was on in the evening and suddenly in the news was something about the creepy clowns again! I changed the programme and told him: "It is a game people are playing nowadays and you know that Halloween is behind the door, it is part of it to play such games… " UFFF, somehow I managed it :-D

However, do you really think it is normal to come to park in clown costume with knife and start scaring people around??? The thing is that some clowns also attacked on people – and here all this fun is really over… We can't just count people, who were injured but what about all those scared kids, who might have really big trauma because of such incident? Unfortunately, this is not something what those, who wear Killer Clowns costume, would realize…

  • Good story. These guys are scaring people in the US too, or so I've read.
  • Holy sh*t! There are so many people with so few brain and so much free time...

    I didn't hear about this, but if I happen to bump into one of these idiots he'll get a kick in his nuts for sure ¬¬

    Btw, very creative answer, what a good mom you are! But probably your son now is thinkin' how stupid are the grown ups and their 'games' :/

  • Luci, I can imagine how furious you are when writing this, to think that your son was totally scared of this not-so-funny creature who supposedly created to make a child laugh. Well, even if a person isn’t on his costumes, still it’s horrible to see someone holding something deadly. The emotions of someone who got scared was definitely  priceless, what if they bump into someone who has a weak heart and because of this stupid act, they accidently killed that person?

     

    Look here, it was happened to my country few days ago…killer clown pranks went wrong.

    “FIRST KILLER CLOWN IN THE PHILIPPINES EMERGES IN QUEZON CITY, GETS ROBBED AND BEATEN UP BY RUGBY BOYS”

    “People around the world have reported series of sightings of Creepy Clowns lurking around random neighborhoods across US, Canada, and the even UK, frightening children and even adults.
    October 7, 11 PM. A prankster in the Philippines wants to start the very first creepy clown prank in the country, dressing up as a clown near Quezon City Circle. But he went in the wrong neighborhood to start.
    According to the reports, the 21-year-old prankster was filming his intro to his creepy clown prank, then, trying to scare a group of 4 children, the 4 boys suddenly started throwing rocks at him, then started beating him up before taking his cellphones, wallet, and his GoPro.
    Bystanders told the police that the 4 suspects were known for inhaling solvents on the street. Vincent (the man dressed up as a clown) is currently being treated at Quezon City General Hospital for his minor wounds and said to be released on Monday.
    The Quezon City Police officials are warning the public on jumping into the bandwagon on dangerous areas
    .”

     

    I don’t know if I will laugh about this or what? The ..dose of his own medicine and all his evil intentions backfired…

  • When people start to blur the line between what is fun and what is scary, that we should really started to questioning the sanity of some of the people. 

  • Adaline, I saw this map The Sun posted and I was kinda shocked !!! What the hell is going on with this world:( thank you for reading me, dear ;)
  • Evangelina, yes!!! I do agree with you ..clowns used to be here to entertain us - not to scare us!!!
  • Luci
    asit, it isn't here to kill (yet), it is here to scare people and no worries... I would kill you only, if I would find out, you are idiot :D
  • Dear Luci, The creepy clown epidemic which started in US is spread to UK now. They have been seen in Essex, Manchester, Wales, London and Newcastle. A clown try to snatch a three month old baby from mum. The mum must be terrified. The corner shopkeeper near my home told me to keep a pepper spray because our street is very quiet.

    If they get caught they will be fined and get a criminal record aswell. But its not stopping yet.

    The Sun newspaper post this picture,
