Return of the uptown clowns!

We must be on an old timeline again with our newsfeeds once against being doused by Halloween clowns!

News sites in constant need of hits and traffic is calling it a “killer clown”.. claiming it is roaming the streets of a sleepy village. Scary.

It’s just a guy in a clown suit, seriously..

Let’s get real.

A Facebook account set up by the clown – calling himself Cole Deimos – posted images of himself in the darkened streets of the village..

He leaves red balloons around the village of Skelmorlie in North Ayrshire, Scotland. Wearing white gloves and a lace collar, as well as a top fastened with big red fluffy buttons, media reports claim that the clown has left the 2,000 locals in fear.

Fear!!

So scary.. a clown who uses social media to garner attention and headlines. The Scots must be quivering in their UK boots.

Back to that Facebook page.. things seem to be either being misreported or the page is gone.

We were not able to locate any social media presence despite the media reports. Maybe going “virtual” scared the scary clown?

Knewz reported,

One individual, who preferred to remain anonymous, expressed his worry about his two young sons, saying, “Whoever this is, they are scaring everybody – he needs to be stopped. Someone needs to intervene before he terrifies someone to the point of a heart attack.” 

“One boy in the street along from us said he saw the clown from his bedroom window just before he went to bed – he didn’t sleep all night,” noted the citizen.

Another resident, Pauline, said photos and videos had recently been removed from Deimos’ Facebook page. 

The Record reports the profile indicates that they are self-employed studied at Clown School and that he is a resident of Skelmorlie.
