The narrator shares three experiences with creepy clowns.
In the first experience, the narrator encounters a clown on their driveway while cutting down a branch. The clown, dressed in a terrifying costume, stares at the narrator before turning away and continuing down the road. Later that night, the clown returns, knocking aggressively on the narrator's sliding glass door, causing the narrator to panic and call the police. The clown flees when the police arrive.
In the second experience, the narrator's school goes into lockdown due to a rumored clown sighting. The narrator sees a clown outside their school, wearing a bright orange wig and a ripped yellow shirt, who chases them back to the school. The police are called, but it's unclear if the clown was caught.
In the third experience, the narrator encounters two clowns in the woods while walking home at night. The clowns seem to be stalking the narrator, who hides behind a tree until they pass by. The narrator runs home, but the clowns appear across the street from their house, staring at it. Later, the narrator sees one of the clowns outside their bedroom window, tapping on it and causing the narrator to scream and run to their mom's room. The clown disappears, but the narrator's mom believes them and reports the incident to the police.
