Clowns are terrifying beings, with their faces painted chalk white and creepy cherry smiles that stretch, quite literally, from ear to ear. Some clowns even have carrot orange stars painted around their eyes. On their noses sit squeaky tomato – like rubber balls. Poufy, curly wigs of all different colours sit atop a clown’s head, topped by too – small top hats and flowers. Their bright rainbow attire hangs too big off their bodies, their large shoes nearly two feet long. They walk around with pies, and slam them into the faces of random people around them.
Black and white clowns, however, are the most terrifying. Instead of cherry red smiles, horrifying expressions are painted on their faces, and they often have a vertical line painted in black over one eye. Their clothes, rather than brightly coloured, though still loose, are more often than not black and white stripped. Substituting for pies, these dark clowns carry around large mallets, which they use to hit people. It is amazing to me how so many clowns are employed for circuses and birthday parties when they are so menacingly creepy.
