What aspects do you find them to be scary? There's even a phobia for it. There are also scary clown movies. Could this be why people are brainwashed to be scared of these balloon guys? What do you think about this?
They sort of look like grown up human beings, yet they don't act that way; can be weird for kids - I used to be very scared for this friend of my parents who always acted like he was crying like a baby if I didn't say Hi to him.. same feeling I had with clowns. They got all these exaggerated facial expressions, and that make up... Also they're having 'forced fun'.
Everything about clowns seems to be insincere.
Clowns can be extremely scary. Just think about it, if a clown was a murderer, you could never catch him because he could keep changing his face paint. Clowns play with kids and act all funny and innocent, but you don't know the person behind the face paint.
Also, the clown's grin is really creepy.
Clowns look bat shit crazy! I'm not phobic in regards to clowns, but I find them annoying and not funny.
WELL from the point of view of psychology, of what i can remember...
A fear of clowns can come from many things. Firstly, if someone else around u is scared of clowns when ur growin up. If u see someone like ur parents have a bad reaction to clowns as a kid ur more likely to develop a fear of them.
For similar reasons bad things happening in the presence of clowns can also make a phobia of them, and i mean not i dropped an ice cream bad but something that genuinely terrifies you happening.
"Why do people scared of clowns?"
Perhaps reason same for the people can't form properly sentence. Or maybe not.
Yes. I kinda agree with you now. Both of us have trouble forming a proper sntence. I know how you feel.
Clowns don't bother me, but weird grammar, syntax, or sentence structure gives me the willies.
Yes. Weird grammar bothers me too. It's easy to mess up and make accidental mistakes when forming a sentence especially when that person like me, who is a non-native English speaker and still learning English did it. I know how you feel there.
Exactly! They are just guys with face paint. It's illogical but then again most fears are.
Every day having to go to work with awful, awful children, thinking what a waste your life has been! What you could have been... then one day you just snap and start killing people. That's why people are afraid of clowns :/
