Are you afraid of clowns?

October 7, 2017 12:55pm CST
This is exactly a fear of one my 5 year old cousinsis facing right now. He can't get close to clowns after I've seen a commercial of the movie IT (the remake). I'm trying to make him lose his fear by watching cartoons with good clowns. Have you ever experienced anything like it? Or do you know anyone in this situation similar?

Never was afraid of clowns even after watching those horror/slasher flicks that have clowns for killers.

I was surprised when I first found out there was such a phobia, but I believe it's quite common. I'm not aware of anyone I've met who's afraid of clowns though.

I'm not afraid of clowns at all my sister is terrified though. We went to fright fest a few years ago and a clown came out and chased her and she ended up crying in the park

I love clowns, even the spooky ones haha the only clowns I dislike are the ones that hold balloons because I really do not like balloons
