First creepy clowns were seen wandering the streets of California, then a clown seriously freaked out a couple in Chicago, and now sinister clowns are terrifying kids overseas. In what's either a sick joke or a very real attempt to give them nightmares for the rest of their lives, clowns in vans have been stalking school children in Kent. For the past two weeks some seriously disturbed individuals wearing clown masks have chased students home, followed them in vans, and approached them on the street, the Mirror reports.

It might've started as a Halloween prank, but kids (understandably) freaked out, and concerned parents got the police involved. In an email to parents, the head teacher of Hillview School for Girls, Elaine Buchanan wrote:

Chief Inspector Dave Pate of Kent Police said the department is, "still working to establish whether any offenses have been committed." Apparently enacting a real-life version of American Horror Story, a.k.a. every kid's (and every adult's) worst nightmare, isn't enough to make arrests.
