Are you afraid of clowns

[ziggy]

Then maybe this isn't the thread for you

Heres a crazy story! A girl babysits three kids. When she says she's going to put them to bed, they start screaming. She finally gets them into their bed. She leaves and closes their door. They're screaming even louder. She goes back in and tells them that there's nothing to be afraid of, when she turns around to find a statue of a clown in their room. She goes downstairs and calls their parents to tell them. Then she realizes that the clown statue isn't actually a statue at all, but a real person. It is walking down the stairs toward her, so she calls the police instead. It turns out that the man dressed as a clown was actually a guy that escaped from an insane asylum and has been living in their closet for three months.

[bing!]

I saw "It" when I was a 6-year-old... so yeah, I'm friggin' terrified of the bastards.

Tim Curry right? He was great in that role.

Remember the clown in Scary Movie?

I've heard that same story, but replace the clown with a midget.
