Is it a joke or an evil madman? However, clowns usually smile, but the audience's reaction-especially those with clown phobia are close to shock. Why? The point of makeup is likely to be an impressive memory of the mask. Alternatively, it is due to the recent increase in "terrible clowns". The clown is the same in the ethnic fantasy every time. There are 10 famous clown lists here-several people are not bad, but some are not enough.

Joseph Grimaldi

Joseph Grimaldi, a Joseph Glymardi 1811 Covered Garden, who played the role of a clown in Harlequin Padmanard, a yellow fish It is stored in the Victoria & Albert Museum in Graving, London.

This British actor, directed by the Victoria & Albert Museum, Theater Ashri (London), is the "advanced clown father." In the early 1800s, Joseph Grimardi created a character called Joey. He has been rumored to be the first clown with white makeup like snow and invented a huge red smile. He still wears colorful clothes and specializes in traditional physical techniques. Glimardi's reputation is very high, and in fact, a church in the UK has a commemorative event to praise him.

Grock

Britanica Encyclopedia Switzerland Charles Adrian Vetta started performing as a clown in 1903. This year, he gave his name Hollock for himself. I was not tired of my circus life and started playing in a musical hall. As the number of performers appearing in Vodville and other shows increased, this was the beginning of a new chapter for clown. Grock, a talented musician, often used musical instruments in his concert.

Oleg Popov

Popov, Oleg Oleg Popov, 2009.

Patrick Glantz You could call him the Tom Brady of clowns. Like the famous NFL quarterback who got his break by filling in for an injured teammate, Oleg Popov took on the role of head clown at the Moscow Circus after he was injured. The rest is history. In 1956, he became head clown and rose to become the most beloved clown in the Soviet Union. Known as the "Bright Clown," Popov created a "positive character" that exuded optimism.

Emmett Kelly

Kelly, Emmett, Emmett Kelly, 1947

Florida Memories Who needs happy, cheerful people when there are sad, tragic people? Emmett Kelly went against the trend and created Warne Willie, a down-and-out drifter in tattered clothes. Perhaps his most famous skit was him trying to step into the spotlight and watching in amazement as it faded away. It is rumored that Kelly modeled his character on depression-era drifters.

Bozo the Clown

Bozo the Clown Bozo the Clown from the TV series The Bozo Show, 1960.

A fictional character who appeared in several American television shows, most notably Bozo's Circus (later The Bozo Show), which aired in Chicago in 1959 and then nationwide. Bozo, the original clown, had flaming red hair, a red nose, and wore giant boots. His popularity among children was undeniable, and the show ran for decades.

Ronald McDonald

McDonald's: Ronald McDonald Ronald McDonald, mascot of McDonald's.

He may be popular with children, but some adults find Ronald McDonald scary. He has been the McDonald's mascot since the early 1960s, when Willard Scott reportedly created the character. It is estimated that at the beginning of the 21st century, more than 95% of American youth recognized Ronald McDonald. This has raised concerns among some who believe that Ronald is contributing to childhood obesity by promoting unhealthy foods. Although Ronald McDonald remains a "press clown", he is rarely seen in commercials these days.

Krusty the Clown

The Simpsons Krusty the Clown Krusty is a clown who appears in the Simpsons series.

Fox Broadcasting Company Perhaps the most famous clown on television is Krusty the Clown. One of the most popular characters on The Simpsons, Herschel Shmukel Pinchas Yerham Krustofsky (as he was born) was an unlikely clown. A quarrelsome, cigarette-smoking, pacemaker-wearing cynic, he often got into trouble, much of his own making - from gambling debts to cheating on his taxes. But Bart and Lisa Simpson remain his biggest fans. Rumors of Krusty's murder in 2014 thankfully did not come to fruition.

John Wayne Gacy

John Wayne Gacy John Wayne Gacy, 1978.

AP/REX/Shutterstock. com This serial killer may have started the modern trend of evil clowns. In the 1970s, John Wayne Gacy murdered 33 boys and young men in the Chicago area. When he wasn't committing violent crimes, Gacy performed at charity events and children's parties as Pogo the Clown. Despite claiming that "clowns can get away with murder," he was convicted in 1980 and executed by lethal injection in 1994.

Pennywise

Pennywise in It Bill Skarsgård as Pennywise in It (2017), a film adaptation of Stephen King's 1986 novel.

New Line Cinema Pennywise, possibly modeled after Gacy, appears in Stephen King's classic horror novel It (1986). The evil clown is one of the forms of the demonic Darth who murder children in the fictional city of Derry, Maine. Pennywise is perhaps the scariest clown in pop culture, and is said to have sparked the clown hysteria of 2016, which saw a series of scary clown sightings.

Killer Klowns

Killer Clowns from Outer Space A scene from the film Killer Clowns from Outer Space (1988, directed by Steven Chiodo). Chiodo Brothers Productions When the first film adaptation of It (previously made into a TV miniseries in 1990) premiered in 2017, Pennywise joined a long list of creepy clowns to appear on the big screen, including the bloodthirsty alien in a clown costume in Killer Clowns from Outer Space. In this 1988 horror-comedy classic, the evil alien kills his victims in ingenious ways, for example by placing them in cocoons of candy floss.

Watching a horror movie is a Halloween tradition. However, there are no fears of those who are not interested in the sequel (this year's Beatle Juice, Smile, and Scare Crow) are not interested or are more interested in chasing. October is unusual, scary, and interesting variations are waiting for you.
