A Case of Creepy Clown Stalking

“I didn’t know what to do or how to react. This was the scariest moment of my life.”

These were the words of a clown-attack victim, which was surprisingly common in America during the early 2000s. In fact, there are hundreds of documented cases of individuals who dress up as clowns to deliberately frighten or even hurt others. Although most of these cases are manifestations of harmless pranks, others are far darker. A man from North Georgia has reached out to us in hopes of having his encounter heard by others. This is his story:

“My experience happened a few months ago. It absolutely terrified me and it changed my life forever. It started in February. I live in a quiet neighborhood that sits adjacent to a small patch of forest. Nothing much really goes on here, so as you can imagine, I was a little unnerved when I started hearing noises at night. It began with a few knocks around the house, as though someone was walking in circles outside and testing the walls. I ignored it at first, but I was definitely a little frightened. I live alone and my closest neighbors live about a third of a mile away from me. So one night I stayed up to watch the house and make sure no one was planning to come inside or anything. I heard the knocking, but when I checked the windows I couldn’t see anyone out there. I decided it was probably some sort of animal since a lot of wildlife does make its way to my backyard to eat from my garden. This theory was quickly disproven the next night though, because something started playing music right outside my bedroom window. The music sounded like children’s music but it was very distorted and odd. Needless to say I was creeped out. I really didn’t want to see who was out there playing children’s music at 3 AM in the morning so I didn’t draw the curtains to find out. Instead, I just sat quietly in my bedroom and recorded the sounds on my phone.”

“I must’ve been up the whole night, listening to that horrible music. I knew someone was messing with me, and I wanted to put a stop to it so I invited a friend over for the next night. I wanted to make sure I wasn’t going insane and that there was actually someone messing with me. When my friend arrived, I explained the situation and showed him the recordings. He was willing to stay up while I slept to investigate the noises (my friend is an ex-cop). To my disappointment, though, he didn’t hear anything. He said he saw some movement in the bushes next to my house, but that it was most likely a squirrel or a cat. This comforted me a little bit, but I was still determined in finding whoever was responsible for making those creepy noises.”

“The following morning I went out to buy a camera from a nearby retail store. On my way back is when another strange incident occurred. The entrance to my neighborhood is a long, winding path which goes through the woods. There is usually no traffic on this stretch and once it reaches the neighborhood, it stops in a dead end. I was driving along this path when I noticed an old white truck in the rearview mirror. This isn’t exactly out of the ordinary, but there was something about this truck that I found odd. It’s windows were tinted black, and I couldn’t make out who was driving it. All of a sudden, it sped up and started tailgating me. This really frightened me, especially since I couldn’t see the driver. I just maintained my speed until I got home, where I pulled over to get out and confront the truck. I didn’t get the chance though, since it drove right past me. I don’t know if this incident is connected to the noises, but I have a feeling it is.”

“That night is when all hell broke loose. At around 11 PM there was a tapping on my bedroom window. With my new camera and a flashlight I pulled the curtains aside and filmed whoever was standing there. Whoever it was quickly ducked down and I couldn’t get a good look at them, but the camera recorded all of it, and if you slow the video down, you can see a clown face.”

“I rushed outside with my camera to check the property. I was honestly horrified but I had to get to the bottom of it. As I opened my door and walked into the backyard, I heard footsteps coming from around the corner of my house. I followed the footsteps and saw another figure peeking from behind a wall. They were all wearing the same clown mask and hiding around my property. I think there were at least five, but I only managed to film a couple. One was carrying a box cutter. I didn’t know who these people were or what they wanted. They seemed to only be interested in scaring me. I ran back inside as fast as I could when I realized I could be in serious danger and locked all the doors and windows. I called the police and explained more or less what was going on. By the time officers showed up, the clowns were already gone. They explained that it was likely they had escaped into the woods and that it would be hard to track them in there. One officer stayed at my house and for the rest of the night, nothing happened.”

“Although I haven’t personally encountered the clowns since that experience, to this day, I still hear distorted children’s music coming from outside every now and again. I think someone is trying to intimidate me. I have purchased a weapon, but I dread the day I will need to use it. I don’t want to see them again and I really don’t want to find out who they are or what they want. I have a feeling they still come to my house at night to watch me.”

Whatever or whoever these clowns are, this encounter is absolutely horrifying. The victim has informed us that there will likely be updates on his experience in the future. For now, we must hope that this is the last he sees of the clowns.
