Wierd news story of the day. Doug Child, AKA Relik the Killer Klown, has been fired from his job in the infamous Circus of Horrors for being too scary.

Circus of Horrors creator Dr Haze commented, 'Our philosophy has always been that people like to be scared and not be harmed but with last years Killer Klown outbreak people began to fear that they would be harmed. ' Stephen Kings IT' is a different thing, it is clearly a movie & Pennywise isn't going to jump out of the screen & whereas our Killer Klown could and with another copy cat Killer Klown outbreak expected this Halloween we decided to go down a different route to create a scare that wouldn't put people off coming'.

Doug Child (40) said 'I am devastated, I have work in the FearFestival in Chepstow for Halloween but then thats it, The Circus of Horrors have said if I can come up with an alternative character they will consider it but at the moment I will be heading for the job centre on November 1st'.
