If ever an article needed a click-bait headline, then this was it. But no, The Mirror go with

Police warn terrifying craze of clowns jumping out of bushes to scare passers-by has spread to UK after sweeping America

Do you think something like this could spread here? Have you ever been accosted by a clown? Is this something that I should be worried about on my nocturnal rambles?

I'd die of a heart attack.

I often wake up in a funk after realizing I've had a leg hanging out of the duvet. It's that kind of opportunity the clowns under the bed take advantage of, and you find yourself waking up with one leg.

Only the genuinely disturbed become clowns. They know why.

I would punch someone straight square in the face if anyone did that to me. Even thinking about someone doing that to me makes me angry. Also, I was walking through dunnes today and just at the top of the escalator there was a clown mask. That's more than enough clown for me.

Killer clowns from outer space. Great B-movie, so bad, it's good.

Wonder when clowns went from been a source of comedy to fear?

Steven Kings Pennywise clown in 'IT'?

I gave Cunnilingus to a clown once.

She kinda tasted funny.

From the linked article "Police in Middlesboro, Kentucky, arrest a man dressed as a clown after he scared people".

Apparently there's a distinction between a clown and a man dressed as a clown.

IT is being remade. I won't be watching it. I certainly wouldn't read it.

I heard she was good at juggling balls and blowing a horn.

Is it anything like this? Because if so I think I know where the idea came from.

This make life so hard for real Clowns. Who often face judgement and resentment anyway.
Genuine Clowns and their families may unfairly feel the backlash in
their angered communities in the coming weeks.

Spare a thought.

I'm just surprised that one hasn't been shot yet

Chancing your arm with these puns is a real high wire act.

Holy Jack-in-the-Box Backwards Man, sounds like The Joker might be behind this!

I have read it and saw the tv-film. The book is about a million times better (scarier).

It's not that I'm afraid of clowns, they make me uncomfortable. I don't like them.
