Menacing clown sightings form "harlequin triangle" in North Carolina
So this is happening. Not just in North Carolina. As reported by -- wait for it -- The Washington Post. (And also NBC News and The New York Times and more.)
The second (but earlier-published) of the two articles features a brief summary of scary harlequins in history. Oh, and there's this from The New York Times: Behold the advent of the Slender Clown. Invisible walls are falling. The center does not hold. | |||||||||||

First the bears come to eat our trash, now the clowns?
Oh shid. I'll never be able to listen to Acid Bath again after this spookiness. |

Re: Menacing clown sightings form "harlequin triangle" in North Carolina
I feel there is sort of an artistry to the sinister clown. They shouldn't look like they're trying to be scary, as it dilutes the inherent sinister suggestion of the clown and becomes empty cliche.
Compare Tim Curry's Pennywise with the one from the upcoming remake: Not that there is anything particularly good about the 90s It movie apart from Tim Curry's Pennywise. |

Re: Menacing clown sightings form "harlequin triangle" in North Carolina
It's too early for the annual pilgrimage to Mirocaw, so who knows what's up with these clowns.
That's the impression I had when the image popped up in my facebook feed. By trying to make him look scary they inadvertedly made him less scary. Fail. | |||||||||||

I submit that the sighting of menacing clowns is related to the candidacy of Trump and the possibility he might win. Then we will all be extras in a nation-wide Blair Witch Project.

I must have watched 5 or 6 clown prank videos. Great fun, thanks!

Send In the Clowns
Isn't it rich? Are we a pair? Me here, at last, on the ground You in mid-air Send in the clowns... ... Isn't it rich? Isn't it queer? Losing my timing this late in my career And where are the clowns? Quick, send in the clowns Don't bother They're here - Stephen Sondheim | |||||||||||
