Residents of a Winston-Salem, North Carolina, neighborhood are keeping a careful eye on their kids this week after police responded to a report of a clown trying to lure kids into the woods with “treats.”
Two children and an adult said they witnessed a creepy incident that immediately brings to mind Stephen King‘s “It,” a horror novel adapted into a TV movie that starred Tim Curry as the killer clown Pennywise. New Line Cinema is in the process of producing a new adaptation starring Finn Wolfhard (“Stranger Things”) as the villain. Andrés Muschietti is directing the 2017 release.
