My name is Cowbag and I am a Coulrophobic with an extreme fear of clowns, but I battled through to give you this collection of evil clowns.
We all know that any clown can be evil, but these guys make no bones about being evil clowns. The leader of the gang has to be Slipknot’s Shawn ‘Clown’ Crahan, but he is not alone--unfortunately.
This gang of evil clowns truly is terrifying, between their masks, hair and teeth. Just looking at them gets the evil clown music going on in my head. And why on earth someone would want one of these beasts permanently inked onto their body is beyond me.
For the record, I find the Socially Conscious Clowns (see linked trend) the most terrifying of the lot.
