The Yoshihiro Tanbara Archivesonly thing creepier than a twisted clown is a little kid version of a twisted clown.

Mississippi teen Eagan Tilghman posted Facebook photos of a creative photoshoot he had with his 3-year-old brother, Louie. Eagan dressed him up as the frightening clown, Pennywise, from Stephen King's It, and the results are eerily fantastic.

Eagan, 17, has been dressing up his siblings in iconic costumes for photoshoots since last year. He told Mashablethe idea for this particular one actually came from a different movie villain, "It all started because my other brother, Hosea, who is four, wanted me to paint his face like the Joker. I did and we just had the idea to dress Louie up and take a few pictures."

Though he has done this before, Eagan says this is the first photoshoot to gain traction -- it probably doesn't hurt that theremake of It is coming out on September 8th.

And if you're worried that the parents had no idea what their toddler was up to in the woods, rest assured his parents are huge supporters of Eagan's creative work.

Perhaps if we ever get a Pennywise origin story, Louie can play him as a little kid. He's already got the look down.
