Terrifying Staten Island Clown Turns Out to Be Marketing Stunt

Let’s be honest. All clowns are terrifying. Not true, you say? Ask yourself how many members of your family have day jobs as clowns, and the answer is probably zero. In fact, there is probably a better chance of your entire family getting slaughtered by a clown than one of them actually being a clown, and that’s because all clowns are creepy as hell.

Case in point, a clown roaming the streets of Staten Island has been terrorizing residents recently by doing nothing more than waving at them.

Scared Staten Island residents have taken to social media, and #SIclown has been trending on Twitter because of it. But thankfully, it turns out this particular clown isn’t a lunatic looking to raid your daughter’s panties drawer, but a marketing stunt for a local horror movie production company instead.

According to CBS New York, published reports are indicating that Fuzz on the Lens Productions is behind this nightmare, and the only social media photos of the clown seem to have been posted by friends of the company as part of the stunt.

Phew. Looks like local residents can now go back their nightly ritual of SportsCenter and Internet porn without worrying about this clown peeking in the windows.
