Clowns. My friends think its hilarious. But I can't go to a circus in case I have to look at one. Pictures of them too. Just there at Christmas there was a clowns face on the slide at the Galway Christmas Market and it nearly made me throw up. Dirty things!
I have both read it and seen the film. The first time I read it I was about 14, an avid reader and a big King fan. It did disturb me, but being a horror fan I still enjoyed it. I could always tell myself that Pennywise was just a character that King made up, not a real life clown.
