Truth stranger than fiction?

Attention Dr. Locrian! This one's for you!

Ok, this one is right out of a Ligotti story.. Here's an excerpt from the article linked below.

""People who own clown puppets often find that strange things are happening around them."
Zaffis has several other possibly evil clown puppets in that basement, along with a few thousand other inanimate objects that just might be possessed — all part of his museum of the paranormal."

Possessed clown puppets!

Check out this news article to find out more...

Re: Truth stranger than fiction?

The expectation that clowns ought always to be merry is as illogical as expecting puppets always to be still.

I tried to check out the original story, and found this:

Thank you for visiting Connecticut Post Online. We are sorry the article that you requested is no longer available.

Have the rascally clown puppets stolen it away?

Re: Truth stranger than fiction?

Here's another link to the newspaper article (a .pdf). As of today, it still works.
