Evil Clowns
Posted by: Loren Coleman on December 30th, 2008
No, no, I’m not talking about those guys from Georgia who faked the Bigfoot body. I’ll discuss them one last time later.

During the problems with this blog (caused by evil gemlins?) over the last few days, I decided to create a year-end Fortean list over at The Copycat Effect site.

As I have mentioned, in Mysterious America, I detailed the national wave of shadowy 1981 sightings of “Phantom Clowns” in vans, trying to kidnap children, from Boston to Kansas City. Once in awhile, I like to update the status of evil clown sightings.
You will find my new collection of the “Top Ten Evil Clown Stories of 2008″ on my much more Fortean Copycat Effect blog.
It was a rather spooky true crime and real events year involving some costumed scary things, including the bizarre “Knight Rider”/”Roswell” links to Christmas Eve’s Killer Santa massacre.



I’ve always been fascinated by the “Evil Clown” stories, Loren.
Thanks for the updates.
That Santa episode in CA was tragic beyond words.
yeah thanks for reminding me of these creepy clown guys now i’ll never get to sleep tonight well i guess its back to therapy for me now thanks alot Loren
I’m sorry that I didn’t catch this when it was first posted, while it doesn’t pertain to cryptozoology it is something I am very interested in, as I’m sure anyone with children or grandchildren would be. After reading the linked posting on the top ten stories, I was disturbed by number of them linked to one rock band. Has society degenerated so far that our teens and young adults can be swayed so much by these so called music stars? It’s very sobering.
