Fears

What frightens me the most are clowns. There are other things, such as worms and such, but clowns are just ridiculous. I'm sure everyone has seen Stephen King's It, which may probably be the source of my fear. What makes them so powerfully terrifying is their comedic facade, where they attempt to make people laugh. But, that is how they get their victims...

First, the clown makes you laugh, in order to make you feel safe and nonchalant around them. They have the make-up to hide the possibility that they could be a serial killer in disguise. Once the clown gets you to lower your guard, they start coming closer. This is when they are most dangerous. Who knows what lies in those giant pants they possess? It could be a bat with secret pores on the surface that excrete a poison that kills you in moments. Or, that pie they have could explode when making contact with human flesh. Or, even worse, that clown could be a cannibal, hungry after young blood.

The make-up that clowns wear are simply creepy. It hides the secrets the clown may have. In fact, its an effective mask. If a clown wanted to, it could murder someone, and the next day without makeup it would be unrecognizable. The paranoia the thing creates is simply bloodcurdling.

Maybe one day, I'll be tough enough to combat a clown. The fear they secretly instill in people will one day amount to full-fledged paranoia.

Back then, my room did not have curtains, which made me freak out. There could be a clown face staring at me from the window while I'm asleep... Who knows what sick things they could be doing just by the sight of me?

Let's just say if one of these rainbow colored creatures started coming towards me I would probably scream for help.
