17-Year-Old Does An “It”-Themed Photoshoot With His Baby Brother, And It Will Give You Nightmares
Twisted clowns terrify a lot of children, but twisted child clowns easily petrify most adults, too. 17-year-old Mississippi photographer Eagan Tilghman has released pictures of a creative photoshoot he did with his 3-year-old brother Louie, and the results look nightmarishly realistic.
Eagan dressed Louie up as Pennywise from Stephen King’s “It”. The 17-year-old did everything himself, including makeup and creating the chilling costume. Everything was so well produced, even Andy Muschietti, the director for the upcoming movie remake of “It”, appreciated Eagan’s Instagram post with a like.

The one with his head poking out the water is the creepiest.
The little boy is creepy, but I think that 17-year-old is hot.
I KNOW RIGHT! priorities lol
Wow Union Pacific railway were getting a bit uppity lol
With good reason - too many idiot kids die on train tracks every year. 483 deaths in the US in 2014 (source: Federal Railroad Administration) . Not to mention how life changing it can be for the poor driver who is unable to stop in time.
Those tracks are in active use. See the field of kudzu behind them? The kudzu would be covering the tracks without someone cutting it back.
My guess is these kids were smart enough to look both ways. And the vast majority of people who die on train tracks WANT to die on train tracks.
@Weeping Definitely still in use, those are exactly what train tracks being used look like.
That's 0.0001% of the US population that probably wouldn't have enhanced the gene pool anyway. At least this kid made art!
Really? Guess you never left your yard to play, must of spent all your time reading statistics. There's nothing better than putting coins on a track and watching this massive machine flatten them. Leave kids alone and let them play, Its the parents responsibility to teach them safety and I trust my kids.
"That's 0.0001% of the US population that probably wouldn't have enhanced the gene pool anyway." Let's take it easy with the eugenics theory eh Galton?
If the poor driver is haunted by the the ghost of a three year old dressed as the clown from IT, he is to be pitied!

They look disused. I'd say old steam/coal engine tracks. There is no need to freak out.
One of my uncles was an engineer on a railway for most of his career. He had PTSD because some idiot decided to step in front of his train to die and required counselling for over a year because he couldn't stop blaming himself for killing someone. After that, he had to deal with three other suicides and an auto accident that resulted in the deaths of everyone involved. ... Before you make snotty comments, consider this - do YOU want to be the person with a corpse on the hood of your car because you couldn't stop when someone stepped in front of you?
the first comment I understand, but the second one - about "private property" - is stupid and unnecessary.
I'm sorry to hear that, hope he's doing better.
Well Ben, sometimes it really doesn't have anything to do with an event being someone's "fault". Seeing someone shot to death, burned in a fire, or blown up in a war may not be your fault either, but it's still a violent, traumatic event. I would worry about someone who WASN'T affected after seeing such things. It has nothing to do with whether or not someone needs to "grow up", as you so manfully stated it. Part of the human condition is having reactions, sometimes strong ones, to distressing events, whether one is at fault or not. It doesn't make anybody less human, or even weaker as a person. It sounds like a normal response. Perhaps it's you who needs to do a bit of growing up.
Oh Ben... I do hope you don't get into such an accident. I don't think you're as callous as you think you are. Most people aren't actually. Have a good day. :)
I keep trying but they move...
Ben, honestly, you are a piece of shit, not a human being.

Fine, my post sounds a little callous, but think about it: what control do you have over some depressed, mentally ill person who wants to kill themselves? If you're driving a car or train, absolutely none. I don't see why I should be depressed and require therapy because I drew the Short straw... There world is not fuzzy hugs and rainbows. Grow the hell up.

Wow...manowce comes in hard with the name calling. How very mature of you.

Honestly if someone stepped in front of my car to commit suicide I'd be more concerned with the damage to my car. They wanted to do and they did. Bye. Nothing I can do about it. No reason to feel guilty. Just focus on the pictures and not the supposed dangers of the situation. You're missing the point of the article and trying to steal away the attention.
Guys I meant know offence, the inclusion of it just seemed oddly out of context in terms of the article, I would assume the photographer took the necessary precautions.
*no
Sadly many don't think about the actual train and it was an excellent place to point out the dangers. It must be a popular place to pose for Senior High School photos as i have seen several. Everyone gets concentrating on poses and proper exposure and never hear the train until it is too late. Very sad when the subject is hit and never gets to graduate. It happens.
No he didn't take precautions. It is Never safe to be on the tracks. I've been an enginer for 20 years. Fortunately I have not Killed anyone but have hit my share of vehicles. I have lost 5 coworkers that were hit by trains. One of them was hit by his own train. He misslined a switch and was struck wgen it came down the wrong track.
Uppity? For telling people to be safe and not to trespass on private property? These tracks are definitely in use. Look how well the gravel is kept around it, no weeds.
You guys won't like this, but there's no such thing as "private" property. It is an illusion that keeps our class system in place. We don't own the air, water, land ....
Well, trains ARE very quiet....LOL
yeah cos people are fucking stupid around rail lines. It's not public property.
I hear news of photographers or models dieing (a few of them) every year photographing on train tracks like morons.
You think so?..........how many twelve year old little boys or 18 year old girls have you climbed off your locomotive praying you will find more than pieces? Yeah I didn't think so. Thank you Union Pacific!
I really dislike clowns...but that kid is cute. And scary...especially when he smiles with the clown face!
I got clown phobia too!
Okay Union Pacific Railroad, we get the message. Btw, best IT costume ever. I'd not mess with this kid (or the railroad) at night!
What's with people and wanting to be on shows
Wow!!!!! Very special WORK!!! They are GREAT!!!
I agree that railroad tracks aren't a safe play area or a safe area to hangout on or around, but people still walk along them, at least a few people in my town do.
That was the most awesome thing I've seen all day. Great job, creepy, dark,...awesome!
I dont like being near train tracks but ppl get photos for senior pictures, walking the tracks with guitars on their backs! Not me i have train tracks phobia! I stop at train crossing even when theres no warning lights and look both ways!
Good points about the tracks. But still, it's a fantastic photo :-D.
whelp, that's one kid who won't be afraid of IT
buen trabajo.....familia que asusta unida se mantiene unida....
Super cute! <3
Can I hug him tho.
I would not want to run into this clown at night, no matter how tiny he is!
How the kid sleep after the shoots? Creepy but beautiful.
Union Pacific Railroad has their panties in a twist because now they can't reap anything from this because there was no legal approval....I understand the thought of safety, I get it....they don't want others to mimic with fear that scenario might end bad. REGARDLESS OF THAT SAID----WELL DONE PHOTOGRAPHY!!!!!!!!!!!! I love the brothers' bond. Very amazing and precious
Union Pacific has to cover their ass. Same as anyone else.
Who else if waiting for the Facebook video of the little boy getting arrested for trespassing? Jeeze, what is not illegal nowadays would be the shorter of list...
The scariest part is having to be around a toddler that long.
He did a great job only one I disagree with is the one on the train tracks, living very close to a track we have seen many killed on the line. His little brother can not be that quick to avoid being killed.
Ya the face that sticking out of water looks like a Nightmare
Terribly awesome good job
I think it's creative And they are just having fun!!! Truly I think they are amazing especially the water shot super creepy but you can tell the older brother has an eye for photography and it's pretty cool.... let's stay positive people this did not hurt anybody.... just people that are hella negative!!
The one with one balloon and a big evil grin is cool.
The older bro kinda looks like EXO Sehun...
He does a little; you're right!
Dear Union Pacific. If there are no, no trespassing signs posted, you can not enforce a no trespassing law.
Don't take legal advice from random posters on the Internet. State laws vary, but none of them requires a magic "no trespassing" sign. http://www.atdlines.com/pdf/cross-ch9.pdf
So by that logic, anyone can come into your house and you can't say anything about it.
Completely different thing and also- weird logic there..
Yeah.... That's not even close matt. Try to think a little before you post bro.
no its not old lady beth
i love
its asome like if you like what i mean lol and i want to do this to my kid is that bad but only for Holloween clown-chil...188c8a.jpg
Love Love Love Love!!!! I want to do something very similar with my nieces one day
Me and my niece boring :) http://veradombi.com/walking-dead/
Me and my niece playing :) http://veradombi.com/walking-dead/
And those are maintained live rails, they're in service. Like another poster said, Kudzu is cut back otherwise in less than a day it'd be covered with that shit.
Good for UP pointing out RxR lines are NOT a photospot and trespassing.
Good for UP pointing out RxR lines are not photospots and trespassing.
That kid is seriously talented.
We have plenty railroad tracks which is closed and not in use but still kept clean and tidy! don't judge if you are ignorant and can say that you know the exact location and that the rails are operating.
great idea for a shoot!! this must have been really fun
you'll float too!
I really like these photos! Great job.
ok yes i know train tracks are dangerous and its only one picture and they should have been safer but wouldn't they have heard the train coming they didn't have to say that on a public post at least message them or something
I thought that about the tracks also. Anyway, just think small brother really looks freezing creepy when he's actually smiling...
Wow great job I absolutely love this. Great work guys!
STOP TAKING PHOTOS ON TRAIN TRACKS! Every year a FEW idiots get killed doing a photoshoot on train tracks, I am a photographer and I say STOP IT YOU IDIOTS.
I have always hated clowns. I have never found anything humorous about them. People hiding behind makeup seem sinister to me. It is no wonder so many people feel the same way about them. clowns are creepy as hell!
Child endangerment comes to mind immediately, especially in the photo of the boy on the tracks. That is criminal trespass and the older brother should charged. Where are the authorities when they are needed?
Union Pacific. Pshaw. Y'all should change your name to Buzzkill Pacific. >.< P.S. - lived next to railroad tracks most of my life; safer to walk on them than it is to walk down the sidewalk these days, and perhaps this region-specific, but I ain't EVER, in 25 years, been snuck up on by a friggin' locomotive. Oh, and I too, happen to reside in Mississippi. Unfortunately. It is nice to see this state being portrayed in a positive light by this talented photog and his creepy-yet-strangely-adorable little bro. Mississippi, for a myriad of reasons, most of which you can probably surmise, typically only makes a blip on the internet's radar screen for happenings that make rural Florida look like Valhalla. Yay us.
Well i wanna say i live out in the country and we have rail roads there that are not used anymore cause of road conditions and people take pictures on them all the time to use as profile pictures prom pictures ect. An also the pictures are amazing keep up the good work and im sure one day you will be big
Not sure this was a good idea. The boy is only 3 and even if he and parents say its ok, this unknowingly innocent picture taking can really change his life in his future. This little boy may really be upset with it later on in his life.
Please stay off train tracks. https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fnbc4i.co%2F2w2DTwR&h=ATNs9siUftRPn10Hht0D8vcpFaHLMLltSw7Skslfv7TRUHRhY4O458zySnHQsRZpJO5P-squo8aodHxF3mLSOdNL7Nn6262dUAqUicmEZXS-LK7afQyOYueEoibsYMzNY63JntcUf9ibksO_J7DKhK_Xt0nP4y0SxD-dXSGsUfk4cMVQ8CtM1W_OupCXMDREZMMrnWgdJltWPsTmnyyZhyxKPa7f7yR2VOydSxPpLYXRfjx1YpJBggHK8pcwsXJRtM9dZb2-lO56PqR-R7bZbw0N7mVN
How crazy is it that the baby looks scariest when he's smiling?
bravo
Shit that was both terrifying and adorable. My brother is much younger than me and I'm kicking myself for not doing something like this when he was 2
I don't see permissions listed and some of the photos have copyrights directly across them. Did you get permission to repost from the photographer? If so, can you edit the article to state that you did?
:O
I love it!
CAN'T SLEEP! CLOWN WILL EAT ME!!!!
Cutest Nightmare.
As a Locomotive Engineer, the only nightmare this gives me is hitting a 3 year old clown at 60 mph with a 24,000 ton train. For many Engineers and Conductors the tell tale thud of hitting a person is forever etched in the heart. The long walk to get to the scene to find a mangled and mutilated body is at best, heart wrenching! To think that the train crew were the last people to see the person alive is unacceptable and preventable. The train crew has to go through several hours of counseling before they can return to work. Some never return to the job. All because someone chose to be irresponsible and trespass onto RR property. The dangers are real! Yes, I have been there and done that!
UPRs' warning just made your chances in getting to Ellen a wee bit smaller.
Well I think he did a great job and I'm pretty sure he was looking out for his baby brother...I have seen many many photos with singers and others taking photos on tracks,and how do they know if he did or didn't make the right calls and ask all the right questions.Good for u and we all loved the great work u have created ..I'm from Maine and Stephen King I bet is loving every minute of everyone getting into his creation...I went by his home just the other day and the famous Red balloon is in his window,Now that's creepy ...
Nice photos. I can understand the concern from union pacific, they could have approaced it differently. Quiet trains my ass. Come to oro grand some day. Those things are so noisey a deaf person can hear them and im a good 400 yards away. Maybe once in a blue moon one comes along whose wheels were lubricated. However for the most part, the way those things squeek, they can easily be used in a horror movie.
This is all well and good but.... why?
I have lived around train tracks, Unless you are deaf, you can hear an approaching train. A train cannot just show up around a corner or top a steep hill. fuck off and let an artist who is doing zero harm to anyone just be....and create awesome art!
Awesome! =)
Great makeup job and super brother bonding. Glad I won't go to any of those movies.
Not all train tracks are active though those looked like they were still being used. We had a set going through my town that wasn't used anymore but they never bothered taking them apart.
Looks like fun and apophobic for the little one.
good art is supposed to provoke a reaction, well done
Where I grew up, Clowns are far from the scariest shit you'll find on tracks in the woods. Does anyone else hear those Banjos?
Where I come from, there's a lot scarier shit in the woods on the tracks than goddamn clowns. Do you hear those banjos?
This young man is an amazing talent!
This is art..and that is all it is ..art..folks..And your an excellent photographer ,Check out Stacksocial..com and get some free classes that could benefit you too and I personally encourage you to stay with your dreams and pursue what makes you happy..One fellow clown to another ..I was for the deaf...and they loved clowns because they could hear anyone complaining... thank god ..Holding my son so this is many yrs ago ..but I had a blast and was before clowns became a ''trolling'' menace made from the ''power of suggestions'' of ..i don't even care who ..Clowns are happy people too!! 252485_101...f1d314.jpg
There are closed tracks that are just left clutterin up the country that are safe, as well NO trains still run on them, so maybe they didnt have to come across so cunty
Union Pacific was correct in pointing that out
Looks like tje little brat next door to us. ;)
Union Pacific, worst company, ever. Kicked out of Colorado. I constantly had to deal with THEIR illegal shenanigans on a regular basis, like leaving a train over a crossing for 4 hours and making a man walk 12 miles in a lightning storm because of it!
And I thought Pennywise is creepy.
Trains are quiet? ROFL bullshit, when I was young we used the tracks to get everywhere.
this is amazing
Masterpiece
Shut up, pacific railway. Yeah sure it's dangerous but "it's trespassing and illegal" and blah blah blah. Whatever. Idiots
Lighten up Francis, why don't you go take a nap on the tracks for a while?
These two truly captured the essence of King's novel.
Not that scary! Cool though!
yep im sure to have nightmares now the only thing that scares me more than clowns is creepy children and this has both
Why? Why did I look at these pictures?
Wow Union Pacific way to bring down a happy thread. Unfortunately I guess they have to tell people this because common sense is not a flower that grows in everyone's garden.
You speak the truth!
It's hard for him to be scary when he's so dang cute!
GET WAY FROM THE TRAIN TRACKS. Trespassing on private property and they are DANGEROUS. why or why would you subject your 3-year old brother to that ? Earlier this year (March 16th) , a 19 year old model was doing a photo shoot on train tracks. Was hit by a train & died instantly. And yes, the conductor saw her, but could not stop in time.
This ain't scary- it's actually cute for me
Union Pacific can go f*** themselves
Harmless fun is all it is, so union pacific needs to take a chill pill, u are definitely able to hear and feel the train coming in plenty of time to get out of the way unless of course you are suicidal
absolutely fantastic, i hope they make it to the show.
Soooo cute, if I were McDonald's, I would definitely hire him!
Clowns are still not scary. Seven years old or not. Yes, the photos are creative, but not scary, not chilling, not anything other than good photos.
cute little killer :D
union pacific railway took my idea of talking about the child on the tracks
This is not creative, it's repetitive and cloying. The photographer put together two very basic outfits and the make-up is very basic as well. The photos are alright, I guess, but to pander to Ellen is embarrassing.
This is a 17 year old child. What were YOU doing at that age?
Feature us on the Ellen show! I want my 5 minutes of fame too!
I hope the gods have seen this time changes

Please stay off train tracks. https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fnbc4i.co%2F2w2DTwR&h=ATNs9siUftRPn10Hht0D8vcpFaHLMLltSw7Skslfv7TRUHRhY4O458zySnHQsRZpJO5P-squo8aodHxF3mLSOdNL7Nn6262dUAqUicmEZXS-LK7afQyOYueEoibsYMzNY63JntcUf9ibksO_J7DKhK_Xt0nP4y0SxD-dXSGsUfk4cMVQ8CtM1W_OupCXMDREZMMrnWgdJltWPsTmnyyZhyxKPa7f7yR2VOydSxPpLYXRfjx1YpJBggHK8pcwsXJRtM9dZb2-lO56PqR-R7bZbw0N7mVN
How crazy is it that the baby looks scariest when he's smiling?
bravo
Shit that was both terrifying and adorable. My brother is much younger than me and I'm kicking myself for not doing something like this when he was 2
I don't see permissions listed and some of the photos have copyrights directly across them. Did you get permission to repost from the photographer? If so, can you edit the article to state that you did?
:O
I love it!
CAN'T SLEEP! CLOWN WILL EAT ME!!!!
Cutest Nightmare.
As a Locomotive Engineer, the only nightmare this gives me is hitting a 3 year old clown at 60 mph with a 24,000 ton train. For many Engineers and Conductors the tell tale thud of hitting a person is forever etched in the heart. The long walk to get to the scene to find a mangled and mutilated body is at best, heart wrenching! To think that the train crew were the last people to see the person alive is unacceptable and preventable. The train crew has to go through several hours of counseling before they can return to work. Some never return to the job. All because someone chose to be irresponsible and trespass onto RR property. The dangers are real! Yes, I have been there and done that!
UPRs' warning just made your chances in getting to Ellen a wee bit smaller.
Well I think he did a great job and I'm pretty sure he was looking out for his baby brother...I have seen many many photos with singers and others taking photos on tracks,and how do they know if he did or didn't make the right calls and ask all the right questions.Good for u and we all loved the great work u have created ..I'm from Maine and Stephen King I bet is loving every minute of everyone getting into his creation...I went by his home just the other day and the famous Red balloon is in his window,Now that's creepy ...
Nice photos. I can understand the concern from union pacific, they could have approaced it differently. Quiet trains my ass. Come to oro grand some day. Those things are so noisey a deaf person can hear them and im a good 400 yards away. Maybe once in a blue moon one comes along whose wheels were lubricated. However for the most part, the way those things squeek, they can easily be used in a horror movie.
This is all well and good but.... why?
I have lived around train tracks, Unless you are deaf, you can hear an approaching train. A train cannot just show up around a corner or top a steep hill. fuck off and let an artist who is doing zero harm to anyone just be....and create awesome art!
Awesome! =)
Great makeup job and super brother bonding. Glad I won't go to any of those movies.
Not all train tracks are active though those looked like they were still being used. We had a set going through my town that wasn't used anymore but they never bothered taking them apart.
Looks like fun and apophobic for the little one.
good art is supposed to provoke a reaction, well done
Where I grew up, Clowns are far from the scariest shit you'll find on tracks in the woods. Does anyone else hear those Banjos?
Where I come from, there's a lot scarier shit in the woods on the tracks than goddamn clowns. Do you hear those banjos?
This young man is an amazing talent!
This is art..and that is all it is ..art..folks..And your an excellent photographer ,Check out Stacksocial..com and get some free classes that could benefit you too and I personally encourage you to stay with your dreams and pursue what makes you happy..One fellow clown to another ..I was for the deaf...and they loved clowns because they could hear anyone complaining... thank god ..Holding my son so this is many yrs ago ..but I had a blast and was before clowns became a ''trolling'' menace made from the ''power of suggestions'' of ..i don't even care who ..Clowns are happy people too!! 252485_101...f1d314.jpg
There are closed tracks that are just left clutterin up the country that are safe, as well NO trains still run on them, so maybe they didnt have to come across so cunty
Union Pacific was correct in pointing that out
Looks like tje little brat next door to us. ;)
Union Pacific, worst company, ever. Kicked out of Colorado. I constantly had to deal with THEIR illegal shenanigans on a regular basis, like leaving a train over a crossing for 4 hours and making a man walk 12 miles in a lightning storm because of it!
And I thought Pennywise is creepy.
Trains are quiet? ROFL bullshit, when I was young we used the tracks to get everywhere.
this is amazing
Masterpiece
Shut up, pacific railway. Yeah sure it's dangerous but "it's trespassing and illegal" and blah blah blah. Whatever. Idiots
Lighten up Francis, why don't you go take a nap on the tracks for a while?
These two truly captured the essence of King's novel.
Not that scary! Cool though!
yep im sure to have nightmares now the only thing that scares me more than clowns is creepy children and this has both
Why? Why did I look at these pictures?
Wow Union Pacific way to bring down a happy thread. Unfortunately I guess they have to tell people this because common sense is not a flower that grows in everyone's garden.
You speak the truth!
It's hard for him to be scary when he's so dang cute!
GET WAY FROM THE TRAIN TRACKS. Trespassing on private property and they are DANGEROUS. why or why would you subject your 3-year old brother to that ? Earlier this year (March 16th) , a 19 year old model was doing a photo shoot on train tracks. Was hit by a train & died instantly. And yes, the conductor saw her, but could not stop in time.
This ain't scary- it's actually cute for me
Union Pacific can go f*** themselves
Harmless fun is all it is, so union pacific needs to take a chill pill, u are definitely able to hear and feel the train coming in plenty of time to get out of the way unless of course you are suicidal
absolutely fantastic, i hope they make it to the show.
Soooo cute, if I were McDonald's, I would definitely hire him!
Clowns are still not scary. Seven years old or not. Yes, the photos are creative, but not scary, not chilling, not anything other than good photos.
cute little killer :D
union pacific railway took my idea of talking about the child on the tracks
