It doesn't speak. It doesn't juggle. It has balloons but doesn't hand them out. It probably doesn't even sleep. It just stands there, haunting our dreams with that sinister smile.

An anonymous man has been striking fear into the hearts of the Northampton, U.K., community by ominously standing around in creepy clown apparel.

The Northampton Herald & Post first reported the sightings earlier this month. The clown has allegedly been spotted all over town, and sometimes is seen carrying a clown teddy.

It is unknown at this time whether or not the clown feeds on the souls of children.

5. World Exclusive: Northampton Clown talks to the Chron about his appearances

The clown, who wants to keep his real identity anonymous, said: “I just wanted to amuse people.

“Most people enjoy being a bit freaked out and then they can laugh about it afterwards.

“It’s like watching a horror movie, when people get scared they usually start laughing.

“Naturally, some people would have been extremely frightened by what they saw, but I hope many are starting to see it as a bit of harmless fun.”

Northampton clown catcher vows to hunt down creepy circus man stalking the streets of East Midlands

"My name is Boris. I am the official clown catcher," he says on his official Facebook page. "I am not here to scare anyone. I am not here to hurt anyone. I come in peace!"

Boris admits on his Facebook page that his efforts to catch the creepy circus man have been hampered by an injury sustained while in action.

Boris wrote: "I wasn't able to get to Gloucester Avenue to try and catch the clown. I hurt my leg whilst I was climbing up a tree looking for him earlier."

He has previously offered to work with the clown saying: "If you are a kind clown (as you say you are), then we should join forces and save Northampton from all evil and danger!"
