This documentary revisits the 2016 clown hysteria, which began with reports of creepy figures near woods in South Carolina and spread into school lockdowns and police interventions across the United States. Interviews with eyewitnesses, law enforcement officials, cultural commentators, and professional clowns explore how the panic affected communities and the people whose livelihoods were caught up in it.
