However, killer clowns were not exclusive to the U.S., in fact, nightmarish clowns were being seen in countries all over the world: These countries included The United Kingdom, Switzerland, Ireland, Germany, Finland and Canada. From My Perspective Okay, if the truth be told, I had no problem with clowns. I mean, I grew up watching Bozo’s Circus.

March told the South Tyneside Magistrates’ Court that his prank was a Halloween joke. Last September, in Reading, Pennsylvania, after an individual wearing a clown mask appeared, a fight broke out. When all was said and done, a 16-year-old had been stabbed to death. Final Thoughts: These creepy clowns may seem funny to some; however, the victims themselves are definitely not laughing. Think about the times you have visited your local haunted house: Even though you enter the house fully aware that the experiences within are meant to frighten you, you still have moments of fear. Now, imagine that you are not choosing this experience and instead, it is sprung on you, such as in the instances of these killer clown sightings. One can only imagine that the fear would be intensified and the individual would do whatever is necessary to protect himself or herself. Therefore, if you decide to contribute to this killer clown craze, keep in mind that people who are truly afraid may cause you harm. Furthermore, just in case you are arrested, have some money saved so you can bail yourself
Halloween was not supposed to be like that, it was supposed to be more like when I was a kid. Houses would be decorated, jack-o-lanterns would be sitting near doors, and

The boogieman and his accomplices are posted under the bed and in the closet, counting the minutes until children go to sleep so that that can attack and scare the life out of them. We all grew up with these fears in the back of out heads. There is always at least one person and one building in every town, whether it be small or large, with a story... a history of mysterious, paranormal behavior. The little town of Canton, Missouri is no different.

At a time when the stalker movie had been exploited to all ends and the image of mute, staggering, vicious killers had been etched into society’s consciousness to the point of exhaustion, a new kid entered the block. The year was 1984 and it was time for a new villain to enter into the horror genre. A villain that was agile, intelligent, almost inviolable yet viscous, and by all means deadly. A Nightmare on Elm Street introduced the distinctive presence of Fred Krueger to the horror industry and to the audience. Freddy Krueger took the center stage and with him a new era of horror films began. This horribly scarred man who wore a ragged slouch hat, dirty red-and-green striped sweater, and a glove outfitted with knives at the fingers reinvented the stalker genre like no other film had. Fred Krueger breathed new life into the dying horror genre of the early 1980’s.

One of the newest upcoming horror movie that just came out is IT. IT is the rendition of Stephen King’s classic killer clown story “Pennywise the Dancing Clown.” I honestly have mixed emotions about this movie; two polar opposite sides of me are telling me two different things.

Why in the world do people put themselves in a situation where they purposely make themselves vulnerable to be scared? Stephen King describes the reasons
A few times each year, our ears perk up when the news is turned on. On occasions there will be news about a murder of a young child or all the way to an old being. Murder is seen as a disgusting happening. Murder is seen as a disgusting hobby. Murder is pure disgust. Eyes fill with hatred when the picture of the serial killer is viewed. They are not human beings, they lack emotion and their eyes are filled with the desire to kill. With quick judgment, people don’t see what’s in the inside. All they see is an emotionless, cold blooded killer. What makes them do what they do? In no way is murder acceptable but there’s always a reason for it and the typical person fails to see what’s through the fog standing between him or herself and the killer. Humans are all born the same, and are shaped to be what they become. There’s always a past that is forgotten but in many cases it isn’t. Serial killers are in the wrong for taking lives from innocent people. Their actions are certainly not justified but they are misunderstood as people do not know what triggers their killing spree.
The clown can follow anyone: a slinky woman wearing pink ruffles, a kid with a mountain bike, a muscle-shirted dude talking Spanish on a cell phone, an old man walking his schnauzer, a big gray pigeon bobbing this way and that in search of food, and then taking flight.
