Who invented ice-cream trucks? That’s so creepy to lure little children into your van with ice-cream and a creepy song…

I find the fact that Ice cream men use repetitive, creepy music to lure children in so unsettling

We have a lot of ice cream trucks in the neighborhood but just heard one playing a really slow, warbled Für Elise.  It sounds so creepy.  Definitely trying to lure small children for creepy purposes? It’s so freaky.
