https://img.washingtonpost.com/wp-apps/imrs.php?src=&w=1484For a few hundred bucks cash, he told The Washington Post, hell make an appearance at your party or gathering, prank your friend or even scare your misbehaving kid straight, as he was recently hired to do by one mother looking for a way to reform her trouble-making 12-year-old.
He was scared of clowns and I showed up across the street from him at the bus stop and he just started crying in front of his friends and ran home, Wrinkles told The Post, somewhat remorsefully, in his heavy New England accent. His mother called back a few days later and said Thank you! Now when he acts bad, she just has to ask him: Do you want Wrinkles to come back?

I have always despised clowns, and that thing looks like it crawled out of one of HP Lovecraft's nightmare hangovers.
