Filming has officially begun on Terrifier 3 – and the behind-the-scenes photos are as scary-looking as you can imagine.

In the snaps, which were shared to Twitter by fans, Art the Clown (David Howard Thornton) is posing as Santa Claus at a mall meet and greet. While we can’t see any shoppers, and the only other people spotted in the pics are crew members, it’s a wonder how successfully Art is duping people, considering his gloves and costume are splattered with blood…

Back in February, Leone weighed in on the chances of a fourth movie, suggesting that he’d need another outing to “tell this story and tackle all the ideas that I have in my head.” In the interview withInsider, he said: “There’s a lot more to explore with Art the Clown, the pale girl, Victoria, and certainly Sienna as our final girl. We will be following her journey to the end of this franchise.”
