Does anyone else remember this strange case of mass hysteria that happened in 2016? To this day, I still don’t fully understand why so many people dressed up as clowns and went around doing the same thing. I assume it was a trendy prank that people participated in for views or simply as a mean-spirited way to creep people out as a joke. I remember I was 15 when this happened. It never even came close to happening again even after several years lol
