FEAR OF CLOWNS (Part 1) - Killer Klowns from Outer Space & Terrifier (Coulrophobia) - Episode 23

SUM OF ALL FEAR - Horror, Phobias & the Brain

Send in the CLOWNS!! It's Part 1 on the Fear of Clowns and we got a whole big floppy shoe full of great information for you. Somehow between Drew's hangover belches, we learn all about the history of clowns and how the evil clown phenomena developed. So why are people so freaked out by these harbingers of childhood joy? Kris gives us the answer and it might surprise you!

Did you know that in 1988, alien clowns came to earth and terrorized a small town? We learn all about that as well (and their cotton candy cocoons) in our honorable mention "Killer Klowns from Outer Space."

For our Feature Presentation, it's time for a Halloween night massacre hosted by our newest favorite horror character, Art the Clown, in Damien Leone's "Terrifier." Seriously, David Howard Thornton is freaking amazing in this role and we can't wait for the sequel.

Next week, we'll be releasing Part 2 on the Fear of Clowns which will be all about Stephen King's IT. We'll talk the 1986 novel, the 1990 mini-series, 2017's IT: Chapter 1 and IT: Chapter 2 coming out this week! Stay Afraid, Feardos!
