Clowns were once considered comic entertainers for children and adults alike. The folks wearing traditional garb and exaggerated make-up not only added comic relief to an intense situation but also performed daring acts like stilt walking and unicycling. But perhaps clowns never received the respect they deserved. As a result, these cute-looking clowns playing the fool slowly mutated into creepy-looking monsters carrying a mallet or a knife to split people open. So now when you see a clown, your mind wonders whether it is a harmless joker or an evil lunatic.
As we approach the Halloween season, we plan to deck the halls with skulls and skeletons, and perhaps gory depictions of various scary things. But why leave the clowns out? Given the plethora of pop-culture references from Pennywise the Clown from It to clown-attired bloodthirsty aliens from Killer Klowns from Outer Space, you can draw inspiration from a lot of jokers out there to decorate your home this Halloween.
