For hundreds of years, we lived in a world where clowns were popularly understood to be funny and whimsical ... or, at the least, not absolutely freaking terrifying. Pop stars sang songs like “Everybody Loves a Clown” and “Send in the Clowns.” Parents hired entertainers in colorful satin outfits to do magic tricks and make balloon animals at their children’s birthday parties. Ronald McDonald sold us hamburgers. Emmett Kelly and Red Skelton were TV staples. We had a tacit cultural agreement not just to tolerate clowns, but to look forward to having them around.
The silly, scary creepy clown onslaught has taken hold across America and Michigan is no exception. This is the list of every community across the state with reported sightings.
If you're not a fan of clowns, you're going to want to do whatever possible to avoid the town of Wasco, Calif.
Why? Because there have been a number of creepy, late-night clown sightings.
It's amazing what you can find on My List! Craigslist! Here's another AWESOME post. Especially if you are looking for people who enjoy, ahem, the other side.
