Occurred on August 11, 2021 / Liberty, South Carolina, USA
Info from Licensor: "Person's in the video are Sonia Howard (mother/myself), Caroline (daughter/victim), & Pam Stancil (friend of mother/clown). Caroline asked for Taco Bell that night so I called Pam and asked her to go with me. On the way to Taco Bell, she and I schemed a plan to try to scare Caroline. It worked out a little differently from the way I assumed it would. I left the drinks at the bottom of the ramp so she'd be facing the camera when she saw the clown (in order to see her facial expression on camera, obviously). I almost forgot to unscrew the porch light, but you can see I was able to manage that right before she tried to turn it on. The porch light would have blocked the camera's view, also night vision works very well. Caroline's reaction was unexpected. I told Pam beforehand to stay on guard bc Caroline will probably try to hurt her. Pam has no fear though. When I heard Caroline's scream, it was gut-wrenching for me as her mother so I immediately opened the door for her (which totally blocked the view of her face) and I kept saying "it's Pam, it's just Pam", but as she ran in she knocked me into the next county and I saw tears running down her then red face. I hugged her and apologized to her. She was laughing and crying. We watched the camera footage right after it happened and she was only laughing at this point. She is okay. She went outside by herself the very next night, so luckily she wasn't affected by it."
