A masked man straight out of a Hollywood horror movie struck fear into the hearts of secondary school pupils this afternoon.
Police were called to Harris Academy in South Norwood after shocked students reported a figure in macabre make-up and clothing lurking nearby.
A Metropolitan police spokesman said officers had resoponded to call about a man "in a Scream-style mask" hanging around the school at 4.20pm, but he had left by the time they arrived.
