As we approach the Halloween month, it's only fitting to share a scary clown story. Except this one is true! A mysterious and sinister clown is stalking the streets of Northampton, U.K.! He's become such a fixture in the community that he...er....she...er....It(?) has a Facebook page!

Yahoo! reports that the Northampton Clown was spotted earlier this month with nightly nocturnal wanderings. People are snapping pictures of the odd character that vary from blurry and mysterious to cute and funny.

A Facebook page has been set up called "Spot Northampton's Clown," with pictures of the night stalker. Check it out for more pictures of the Greasepaint Ghoul! And now, according to Yahoo!, another character has emerged! A man with glasses and a blue-muscle padded superhero costume has dubbed himself "Boris the Clown Catcher!" Is he really someone who's out to catch the clown? Or is it the clown himself? Only the Shadow knows!
