Five Mississippi daycare workers were charged with child abuse after a video of them terrorizing young children with a Scream mask was posted online.

A word of caution: Watching this video will make you mad.

The video was filmed at Lil' Blessing Child Care and Learning Center in Hamilton, Mississippi. In it, one of the daycare workers dons the mask and then screams in the toddlers' faces.

"Are you being bad? Do I need to take you outside?" the monster screams.

Then at another point the woman filming the video and laughing says,

We are supposed to be cleaning up, monster.

Through it all the children scream and shake with terror.

One mother said,

"I was in complete shock of what I witnessed. Whether they had a mask on or a mask off, their behavior was unacceptable. My blood pressure was raised. It broke my heart for my child. I was angry.

"I hope you're enjoying jail and I hope you realize what you have done is serious," Johnson continued. "It is not a joke and it is nothing to laugh at."

Four of the daycare workers face felony child-abuse charges, and one faces misdemeanor failure-to-report-abuse and simple-assault-against-a-minor charges.
