"If we die, I'm blaming you." clutching onto Laurens arm I sent her a glare as we walked through the parking lot
"We aren't going to die." she laughed waving her hand stepping into the line to get tickets "There are hundreds of people here this would be a terrible place to try and murder somebody." I'm honestly not sure if she was genuinely trying to make me feel better or not
"How reassuring." I pressed closer to her trying to get away from the killer clown walking by us, we were at a carnival, a Halloween carnival to be exact. Most of the rides have been replaced with haunted houses, all the food and games are Halloween themed, and there are workers dressed up wandering around everywhere "I swear to fuck if a clown comes to close, I'm sacrificing you." she laughed throwing her head back finding this situation way to funny
"Don't worry baby," she turned to me kissing my forehead as we stepped up to the booth "Ill protect you." She turned to the worker as I looked around taking in the atmosphere
Everything was Halloween decorated, obviously, with four main haunted houses and a few rides here and there. The big attraction was the haunted corn maze though
I'm not sure how exactly they set it up out here, I'm pretty sure there was no huge corn maze here before, so that made it even spookier
A magically appearing corn maze so big you can get lost for hours, sounds exciting. If the threat of getting lost and dying in a corn maze wasn't enough there are workers dressed up all through it there for the sole purpose of trying to give you a heart attack
I shrunk back a chill going up my spine as a particularly scary looking clown walked in. Its costume was baggy stripped with red and yellow, three puff balls sitting in a line at the front of the suit. The entirety of it was covered, no drenched in hopefully fake blood
The worker's face was painted a white a blue smiley face was painted on along with a star over each eye. Their blood splattered face was spread into a wide smile, a little too wide to be considered normal.
I almost turned around and ran back to the car when the clown suddenly turned his head making direct eye contact with me
I stared wide eyed stuck in my spot as it raised its hand a knife dripping blood coming into view. It used two fingers to wave at me while the others clutched the knife tightly
"Lauren!" I yanked her arm turning her in the direction of the clown
"What the fuck y/n that hurt." She shot me a glare, but I ignored her pointing in the direction the clown was
"Psycho clown crazy fucking bloodthirsty psycho." She followed my finger looking at where the clown was standing but he was gone. Nope wtf wtf wtf
"Nobody's there." She said pulling her arm out of my grip and turning back to the ticket booth
"But he was just there." I stayed staring at the spot even as Lauren grabbed my wrist and put a wrist band on me
"The theme is killer clowns," Lauren informed me grabbing my hand and pulling me along towards the entrance. I dragged my feet doing my best to stay back but Lauren kept on "you're bound to see a few." I'm bound to die
Taking in a deep breath I calmed myself down. She's right the whole purpose of this place is to scare me. It was just a worker a very scary worker but still just a worker
"Are the others here?" strength in numbers you know
"Somewhere around here." Lauren mumbled distracted looking through the crowd. She was going up on her toes trying to see over the crowd, but her short ass still couldn't see
