Polk County Sheriff’s office tells us that there is a texting scam going across the United States, and some people are being affected by it in Hillsborough and Polk County. There have already been several incidents in the Polk County area. Several people have reported receiving a text that advertises T-shirts for sale by the Polk County sheriffs office! The text provides a link where you can make the purchase, but DO NOT CLICK THE LINK! The text is not coming from the Sheriffs office. The scam text also includes Lakeland and Auburndale Police departments as well. Sheriff Grady Judd released a statement saying “Always be cautious of text messages with links, even if it appears to be from someone you know. Call the sender and make sure they sent it to you.”

‘Terrifier 2’: The New Horror Flick Has People Vomiting in the Theater

There is a new horror movie in theaters that has people fainting and vomiting. It's called Terrifier 2; you're excused if you haven't heard of the first one. 2016's Terrifier didn't make a huge impact; on Rotten Tomatoes, Terrifier has an approval rating of 56% based on 16 reviews.  It fared even worse with audience reviews, earning only a 55% approval rate.  Here is everything you need to know about the movie you're hearing about all over social media.

Who is the killer?

A character called Art the Clown. He has mime-like qualities and has previously appeared in 2013's All Hallow's Eve.

Who are the victims of Art the Clown and why?

Apparently, there is no rhyme or reason to Art's killing. According to wiki Villains Fandom, Art loves "viciously slaughtering nearly anyone he comes across, with his preferred method of killing and torture being mutilation."

Why is it considered so gory?

The blood and gore of some of the murder sequences have been too much for some to take.

Vomit bags have been suggested for those going to see the movie

People are passing out in the theater, including this poor soul

Apparently this warning is issued before the movie

This man describes a man who vomited in front of him

This person got a tattoo of Art the Clown

This person saw five people walk out of the theater
