EXCERPT: US parents have hired out a clown to terrify their misbehaving kids. Wrinkles the Clown, who is now regarded as an urban legend, first appeared in Florida back in 2013. The creepy character is now the inspiration behind a new online documentary of the same name, after a series of viral videos on a YouTube page titled "HvUseen Wrinkles" came to surface in 2014.
[...] For a few hundred dollars, Wrinkles will apparently turn up to any social event, scare misbehaving kids or prank your friends. He will also stand menacingly outside someone's house whilst clutching a handful of balloons. ... In an interview with the Washington Post, Wrinkles remembered a time when he was hired by a mother to terrify her 12-year old son.

His mother called back a few days later and said 'Thank you!' Now when he acts bad, she just has to ask him: 'Do you want Wrinkles to come back?'"
