I'm not quite certain when clowns became scary?? I know my kids were freaked out just by the clown in Poltergeist. They had a stuffed clown in their room and insisted I removed it. THEN of course King's IT was the icing on the cake. We all freaked out at him. eek

I remember in 1st grade I was a clown for Halloween. Not a scary clown but a regular clown. Now, I would never suggest to my grandkids to be a clown (unless they wanted to). Hmmmmm Even when we went to the circus last year, the clowns just didn't seem as funny. ohwell
