Scary Clowns - The Harlequin

Scary Clowns

Five year old Dan Mitchell would be settled in bed, with his parents down the hall, when the visitor would arrive. Gracefully prancing through the young boy's bedroom, it would communicate through, telepathy, theatrics and movement. The tall, thin androgynous figure would appear to be in a permanent state of shock with eyes wide and mouth formed into a large O. It's face had an almost ancient look to it but its hands were its most notable feature to the young boy as he felt he recognised them somehow, they were the hands of his ancestors . A damp, fresh, aroma like that of the summer rain, would accompany the visitor and Dan would attempt to tell his mum about the entity but she would put it down to his imagination, however, this creature was very real. The caller wore an outfit fashioned from scraps of fabric, hence Dan referring to it as the Harlequin in later years, though it referred to itself as the Tooth Fairy when he was a small child. He was never afraid of these visitations, instead there was a feeling of familiarity. Dan cannot remember the specifics of what the harlequin would say to him but he does recall that it would tell him about things he'd have to do when he was older.
