Default John Wayne Gacy
When I was a little kid growing up in Springfield, John Wayne Gacy lived down the street from me. I was only about four years old and he tried to talk me into going for a ride in his car. All my friends were screaming, "Get away! Run away!" I'm sure glad I listened to them, I ran as fast as I could. Even way back then, he was creepy. I never did care much for clowns since then. I think I read a story a few weeks ago about another creepy clown in the Springfield area.
