What's the deal with clown fear, anyway? I don't get it. Really, I don't. ;D They seem strange to me, but fear? Can anyone explain that? 
Depending on whether or not you've read "It" by Stephen King...
Anyway, one of the things I've always figured about the fear of clowns is that it is difficult to understand anything or anyone that seems unnaturally happy (or sad, depending on the clown) and that it's less a fear of the clown itself and more a fear of what the person behind the painted face might be like.
