• Townsfolk in Skelmorlie, Scotland, are getting their Halloween on as a Pennywise-type clown lurks around the streets, Sky News reported, leaving red balloons in his wake.
The clown, who may or may not be someone named Cole Deimos, posted a "message to the media" in rhyme: "They called me 'killer clown.' Why don't you leave the jokes to me? The only thing that's dying is your credibility. This clown doesn't want fame, glory or gold. He just wants to play in this so-called 'sleepy town.' So, come and join in and learn to fear the Skelmorlie clown."
Police haven't received any reports of crimes, and Facebook followers are gleeful: "Out of all the clowns in the village, he's the best." [Sky News, 10/13/2023]
