Clowns are freaky the way that most masked creatures are scary. We have no idea who is hidden behind that makeup. Yes, they could be just some kind person looking to entertain a crowd, but they could also be predators, aliens, monsters, thieves, and perverts hiding in plain sight. The worst part is that they are bright and cheery and appeal to children. We all have a natural instinct to protect our children, and who knows who those masked creatures are, capturing the attention of our beloved babies. It’s our fear of the unknown and our protective nature.
ameliatron Do you think the many uses of Props plays into it also?
MonkeyPickles Personally, I don’t think so. Watching some guy juggle flaming torches, throw knives, or squirt water-filled fake flowers at the audience never bothered me…unless he was a clown. Even Luchadors kind of freak me out. Who are you and why are you hiding from me?
