Hilarious moment prankster terrifies adorable baby niece with creepy clown mask

THIS is the hilarious moment a prankster terrified her niece by wearing a creepy clown mask in a shop.

Tylar Denholm, of Lanark  in Scotland, donned the horrifying mask before approaching little Alexa.

During the 10-second clip, "cruel" Tylar crept up to her niece after putting the mask over her face as the youngster sipped on her juice - completely oblivious to what is to come.

The incredible footage has already received over 570 shares and more than 2,300 likes.

And it has been viewed on Twitter more than 48,900 times since it was posted on Friday.

Tylar captioned the vid: "I am going to hell, the poor wain", accompanied by a laughing and crying emoji.

And plenty of social media users agreed, but laughed along with the jump scare.

One user wrote: "Hahahahahahaha".

Another said: "Yes you are. Going to hell!!!!"

One commented: "This is brilliant, poor wee lamb".

A fourth wrote: "I’m not kidding I just peed a wee bit and the tears are streaming down my face!!"

It's not the first time a prank has been captured on camera and posted on social media.
