In the screenshot, the horror figure stands peering out of a door spattered in "blood" at the entrance of a flat in Montreal, Canada.
The shot was perfectly timed by the prankster, as he is now leaving online explorers across the globe horrified at the sight of him brandishing a bloody knife just as the infamous Google camera van drove by.
Whether they knew about the van making its rounds and planned the event – or if they were simply at a Halloween party and thought they might as well make some mischief – is anyone's guess.
Pennywise was the blood-chilling killer clown from the 1986 horror novel, IT, by Stephen King.
Roughly every 27 years, the evil entity who preys on children in Maine, USA resurfaces, going unnoticed by adults.
