You can shoot Killer Clowns in south London this week

A shot rang out. Leaves scattered. A killer clown jumped in agony.

Londoners fed up of the ‘Killer Clown’ craze which has recently caught the imagination of the country’s intellectually challenged can vent their frustrations this week as a south London paintball centre offers the chance to hunt and shoot clowns.

UK Paintball are hosting a series of hour-long shooting sessions in a bid to turn Killer Clowns into killed clowns. Teams will be armed with a gun and paintballs, and sent into the 50-acre wood to hunt and splatter their targets.

Watch the video above to see how the Standard got on.

Those headed to the established south London site, at Whyteleafe South – around 40 minutes from Victoria – will be dressed up in army fatigues and protective wear, and sent out to the woods, which are decorated with various obstacles and hiding points, including a fort and piles of discarded oil barrels.

The happily exhausting sessions are set to run for one week from Halloween but will be extended if enough Londoners are keen to clown around.

Sessions will cost £250, based on a team of 10 paying £25-a-head, and can be booked at ukpaintball.co.uk The price includes all equipment.
