This is a real story. At the end of the 1960s, dozens of children in all the United States began to relate to the same thing. A man dressed as a clown, standing outside the schools, hiding close to the park or offering a face in a van without windows. The police discarded the main stories. They said it was a collective hysteria, a malgost joke. But then the children began to disappear. The man was described as an author, using a fantasy of painted clowns, red lights and makeup in the face that seemed wrong, drunk, almost being drunk. Parents say that a huge white van is taken close to the playgrounds, always leaving the place, little before the police arrived. Some said that there was more than a clown inside, running, observing. Jornais recalled the first story. No official report was divulged, but in 1968, a boy from Ohio came after saying, "The man dressed up and called me to see his ball." They never found a child. In the next year, the similar events occurred in Illinois, Pennsylvania and Georgia. Some say that they were a group, a gang, that used fantasy as a disguise. Others believe that there was something more sombre behind the makeup, until today no one was paid, without names, without faces, just drawings and old cases showing the same thing. A paleo of black eyes, a smile that never changed.
