A PSYCHOTIC-looking clown who promises to scare children senseless can be booked as a birthday surprise.
For a fee, actor Dominic Deville dresses up in a deathly clown mask and contacts his child "victims" in the Swiss city of Lucerne to tell them he is watching them.
His "evil clown" service unfolds further as he teases his targets with texts, phone calls and booby-trapped letters, warning them that at some point during their birthday party, he will throw a cake in their face, the Austrian Times reports.
Mr Deville's look appears based on the monster clown played by Tim Curry in the 1990 TV adaptation of the Stephen King novel It.
In fact he admitted he set up the chilling business concept after watching his favourite horror movies.
"It's all in fun and if at any point the kids get scared or their parents are concerned, we stop right there," he said, adding that most children "absolutely love" being terrified by his antics.
Come on, you can’t match Tim Curry for weird.
Don’t need this. I’m already half scared out of my wits by Obozo the clown.
He could have been an accountant, but this career is just as good.
I had clown nightmares for years and years as a kid up through my mid twenties. Something like this would have thrown me right over the deep end!
This clown scares the snot out of
border patrol agents.

I never could understand how people thought clows were scary until I saw the movie “Cabin in the Woods” - they had one clown with normal clown makeup (not purposefully evil makeup) who comes at someone with a knife while cackling gleefully ... a really creepy scene
I'm guessing that by the time the kid gets scared, the damage is already done.
What could possibly go wrong?
The only way this could turn out okay would be if the “target” kid just happens to be martial arts expert.
“Homie don’t play that!”
Ich bin ein Grrrr tummler.
The Bites taken out of the cake are a nice touch.
Is it a real clown or somebody dressed up like a clown?
Sorry, but Tim Curry has this wanna-be beat. No doubt about it!
