Creepy Clown Haunting Chicago Cemetery

For the last several years people dressed as clowns have been randomly showing up in odd places, scaring the hell out of people. This story though? This takes the proverbial cake.
CBS Chicago reports that a Chicago couple captured a creepy clown on video in the dead of night prowling around a Chicago’s historic Rosehill Cemetery. Julia Graham says she was “freaked out” at the figure as it ran toward the main gate. She and her husband were driving by around 10 p.m.
“When we get closer, we realize it’s a clown, which is super weird,” she says.
The first picture her husband snapped was of the clown scaling the 7-foot tall gate at the Ravenswood Avenue entrance. That feat is no easy task, especially for someone wearing a clown suit. “I mean, this was somebody putting forth a lot of effort — and being really weird,” Graham says.
The North Side cemetery was clearly closed and locked for the night. Officials don’t know what to make of it because other than the trespass, there were no complaints of vandalism.
It got weirder. When Julia and her husband hung around to get a better look, the clown was not deterred or afraid. He waved slowly at the couple. Eventually, the clown caught in the headlights of Graham’s car turns around and, without saying a word, takes off into the darkness of the cemetery.
“I just think it’s creepy and wrong,” Graham says.
