On Saturday, two friends, Alex Turner and Brian Lee, decided to take a jog in Newark, Ohio, a location recently infamous for a surge in clown sightings. Yes, you read that right—clown sightings are now a thing, so if you’ve been blissfully unaware of this circus of horror, buckle up.
As they were discussing the bizarre clown encounters in their area, they approached a suspension bridge and were met with a sight that would make anyone’s heart race (warning: the video includes some colorful language).
Let’s just say, if there were an Olympic event for running away from clowns, this would be the gold medal moment. We all know the drill: we hold hands, and I sprint until I either collapse or get a heart attack from sheer panic.
Not too long ago, we reported on clowns trying to entice kids into the woods in South Carolina. That was unsettling enough, but at least those clowns were just waving and offering candy—this one, however, was sprinting after the joggers like he was training for the next marathon and brandishing a knife! Talk about a plot twist.
When it comes to potential zombie scenarios, one of the first things you’d want to assess is their speed—are they the sluggish ones from Dawn of the Dead or the speedy types from World War Z? With clowns, one might expect them to simply lurk around, trying to scare you with a creepy stare. But this guy? He was clocking a solid 8-minute mile while wielding a blade, and that’s just too much for my heart to handle. I felt a wave of terror wash over me when he turned to face them; let’s just say I might never recover from that level of fright.
Sure, some might argue this video is staged, but guess what? It’s still terrifying. It’s the kind of fear that lingers long after you’ve watched it.
Enough is enough, clowns. We get it—you’re chillingly creepy. But for the love of all that is good, please stay out of the woods in the early morning hours. If you must haunt those areas, just stay put! And really, a knife is a bit excessive when a simple wave could send us sprinting for the hills.
Thanks for your cooperation, you devilish jesters.
