Evil clowns have been popping up in South Carolina, Kentucky, and Tennessee in the past few weeks. Most of the clowns have been hiding in forests or parks and scaring young children. As ABC 13 writes, “A teenager in Coffee County, Tennessee claimed to be attacked by a clown in recent days while other children reported clowns trying to lure them into the woods across the southern United States. At a local shop in Lebanon, clown costumes remain a best seller for this year’s Halloween season.”
