Scary Pennywise clown terrifying residents in Ayrshire village
A TERRIFYING clown has been scaring residents in one Scots village in recent weeks with red balloons left all around.
The clown, which has been spotted in Skelmorlie in Ayrshire, is made to look like the character It from the popular Stephen King horror novel.
The scary sight has been spotted in different locations around the village, leaving red balloons for residents to find.
The clown was also caught on house CCTV standing in the rain before disappearing.
The appearance of the figure is rumoured to be a performance stunt by adults in the village. Videos of the clown have been posted on social media but nobody has taken responsibility yet for the terrifying figure.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
