A set of creepy oil paintings by notorious 'killer clown' John Wayne Gacy could fetch thousands at auction after being found gathering dust in a cupboard at a UK house. The American serial killer penned the sinister artwork which depicts a terrifying skull-faced clown, Jesus Christ and The Seven Dwarfs on death row during the 90s.
The paintings were uncovered at a property in the West Midlands after the owners died - leaving a stunned son to make the discovery in his parent's cupboard. The pieces, which are signed by Gacy, provide a chilling insight into the warped mind of one of the USA's most deadliest serial killers.
Gacy, the inspiration for Stephen King's hit horror 'It', sexually assaulted, tortured and murdered at least 33 boys and young men between 1972 and 1978 in Chicago. His twisted crimes are currently subject of a Netflix series 'Conversations with a Killer: The John Wayne Gacy Tapes'.
