If you came across this Ronald McDonald on the street, you would not be lovin' it.

According to Redditor Emblematic_, this Ronald statue was looming over passersby in a McDonald's with a Conference Centre in Bateman's Bay in New South Wales, Australia.

The once cheerful giver of burgers and fries looks ominous and downright creepy with the dingy glow of the light seemingly coming up from the floor below him like he's about to tell us a spooky campfire story. It's almost like he's summoning the dark clouds in the photo.

If you weren't afraid of clowns before, perhaps now is the time to start.

But people on the Internet are coping with their fear in the only way they know how: with a hilarious Photoshop battle.

Another Redditor posted the photo on the subreddit r/photoshopbattles, and people are happy to ease their pain by having a few laughs at creepy Ronald's expense.
