Murder the Clown (Cosmic Forces)

==Summary==
Murder the Clown is a minion of Slappy's that actively hunts down Twist in both Night of Scares and Dead of Night, both made by Cosmic Forces.
He and other clowns were imprisoned in a hidden place called Clown Street, where they were forced to entertain forever, fighting for their lives all for the amusement of the crowd. As a performer, he was quite successful, performing everywhere, even the Big Top. Now he has been summoned by Slappy to hunt and murder Twist.
He came from the seventh book in the Goosebumps Most Wanted book series called A Nightmare on Clown Street, bearing the appearance of his movie counterpart.
==Powers and Stats==
Tier: 
Name: Murder the Clown
Origin: Goosebumps/Cosmic Forces
Gender: Male
Age: Unknown (Is an adult in appearance, but his exact age is unknown)
Classification: Clown, Murderer, Monster, Circus Performer
Powers and Abilities: Peak Human Physical Characteristics, Weapon and Fighting Proficiency (Is capable of using items as unconventional, but effective and deadly weapons. Such as using a giant, plastic lollipop as a blunt weapon that can one-shot people. Fighting for his life is just a natural part of his job), Stealth and Ambush Proficiency (Murder the Clown across the games, despite wearing a big colorful clown outfit, has shown a surprising degree of stealth. Being able to stalk and hunt his victims without being noticed. Utilizes darkness to his advantage. As an ambush clown, he tends to ambush his victims by jumping them from a hiding spot, or by using his teleportation to appear behind them), Teleportation (One of his main abilities is the power of teleportation, being able to disappear and reappear in a puff of smoke and confetti), likely Hammerspace (Can seemingly pull weapons out of nowhere in a moment's notice), limited Clairvoyance (Is able to detect if Twist has been in the dark or hid in a hiding spot for an extended period of time, and then teleport to where he is), Body Control (Crammed himself inside a small cabinet), Enhanced Senses (While it isn't explicitly stated, Murder can easily work and stalk Twist in darkness and the dead of night), Resistance to Sealing (Completely unhindered by being in front of an open manuscript)
Attack Potency: Street level (Can kill Twist in one hit, the protagonist of both games. Should be comparable to the other monsters like the Werewolf of Fever Swamp, who can knock down a door off its hinges in a single hit, which would be this level. The Werewolf is implied to be capable of killing deer. Even lawn gnomes, the weakest monsters in the game, can easily kill Twist with small gardening tools)
Speed: Peak Human (Can attack and kill Twist before he can react. In-game he is only seen creeping around slowly, but this is most likely just him trying to be sneaky. This can also be considered Game Mechanics)
Lifting Strength: At least Athletic Human, likely Peak Human (Comparable to the Graveyard Ghoul, who was casually able to knock off the lid of a sarcophagus. The average sarcophagus lid is estimated to be around 500 pounds. Murder himself, along with the other monsters, can easily overpower Twist) 
Striking Strength: Street level
Durability: Street level, possibly higher (The monsters in Night of Scares are unaffected by the red beams from the Annihilator 3000s, laser beams that kill the player)
Stamina: Unknown (Show no signs of exertion throughout the game, even while constantly chasing down the player across R.L. Stine's house)
Range: Standard Melee Range, Extended Melee Range with fake lollipop, Several Meters with Teleportation and Clairvoyance
Standard Equipment: Fake lollipop, otherwise none
Intelligence: Average (Murder the Clown is a man who made quite the name for himself as a clown, forming humble beginnings consisting of performing everywhere from parties to the Big Top. Alongside being an excellent circus performer, he manages to survive the horrors of Clown Street, fighting for his life amongst his peers all for the amusement of the crowd. As a minion of Slappy, this is reflected as him adopting an ambush clown style, using the darkness to his advantage to stalk Twist in the corridors of R.L. Stine's house. Murder is quite proficient in stealth as seen in the games, being able to hide in unexpected spots to catch his victims. Murder uses his capability of teleportation proficiently alongside his stealth)
Weaknesses: Murder is usually quite stealthy and nearly completely quite when stalking his prey, but at random times he creates a honking sound that can give away his position. Doesn't teleport in small spaces or well light areas, but this seems to be more of a preference rather than an actual limitation. Teleports by appearing in a puff of confetti and smoke, which can be quite noticeable, hence why he prefers to teleport in darkness or behind his targets.
