It started out as a simple photography project but turned into a social media campaign with people fearing killer clowns were invading Southern California.
And it's not just residents that thought the invasion was real but the national news media also bought into the social media stories.
Local police say the story was taken out of proportion.
Police believe people have fabricated stories of the clowns attacking people.
