Video: The notorious 'Northampton Clown' captured on video The video, which was the first time the clown had been recorded since his appearance on Friday 13th September, shows him standing in a lake at Abington Park, holding a balloon and waving at the camera. In an interview with the Northampton Chronicle and Echo, the unnamed entertainer described his impromptu appearances at various locations around the town in recent days as "a bit of harmless fun." The clown, who wears a frizzy red wig and multi-coloured costume, has been spotted in several locations across the town and has received threats from some locals. He has since taken to social networks to defend himself, saying he just "wants to be spotted." He wrote: "Too much hate not enough love." Source PA
