Do creepy clown sightings—and the possible Trump presidency—have you ready to flee the country? You're out of luck, because clown sightings have gone international. The Mirrorreported that someone recorded a video of a clown lurking near a children's playground in Wales at night.

Caernarfon is the not at all lucky town to be visited by this mysterious clown on two consecutive nights, according to residents. It was reportedly a schoolboy who recorded the drive-by video of the figure in a clown mask near the Hwylfan fun centre children's playground. The video shows the car driving past the clown as the clown turns to look.

"I thought it was a bit creepy myself but you knew it was meant to be a prank as some people also spotted a few kids laughing nearby," a Caernarfon resident told the Mirror, adding that most people who have seen the clown have been scared. One resident went so far as to say the clown was "terrorizing" the small town.

Some U.S. clown sightings have been far closer to the terroristic side of things, with people making threats to schools. One Texas teen who was arrested after turning himself in for making clown threats. However, in at least one case no harm was meant at all. A 12-year-old boy in Virginia, who is a Stephen King fan, wore his It costume in public, leading people to think it was another clown sighting.
