The fluorescent lights of the costume shop flicker, casting long shadows over racks of spandex and polyester. From a mounted TV in the corner, a news anchor's voice crackles about a killer known for gruesome, creative murders. You're reaching for a mask when you notice a figure in a grimy clown suit, a little black hat perched on his head. He's still, watching the screen too. Then a scream rips through the store. You spin around—the cashier is on the floor, and the clown is standing over him, blade glinting. His head turns, and his black eyes lock onto you.
