BREAKING NEWS – Northampton, England – A spooky clown looking exactly like “Pennywise” from the Stephen King-inspired 1990 horror film, “IT” – has appeared in several locations throughout Northampton, England. Why the clown is there and what he is doing has baffled local residents and social media users around the world, until now. In a letter written to the local newspaper, the unidentified clown said he was there to make sure that everyone started their days with a happy face, and spread joy throughout the neighborhood. He said that people who start the morning with a sad face, and walked around wearing all day wearing a frown, will be viciously strangled to death the following evening shortly after they fall asleep.
