I have Poltergeist to thank for that!
They are creepy creepy creepy!!!!!! You know what else is creepy????? That dumb DUMB Burger King KING they have in their commercials, especially the one where he's in bed with someone!! Now that is CREEPY!!!!!!!!!!!
That is one horrible marketing technique!!!!!

LOL! I'm glad i'm not the only one who hates clowns and the burger king king. Clowns just creep me out ,but i've always heard clown school is alot of fun! 
The creepiest one is when the guy wakes up and opens his blinds and POW right there you see the king and he offers the guy a breafast sandwhich or something. I was like what the. 
Let;s just say i didn't open my blinds for a couple of days. LOL!
Oh, I HATE clowns!
Do you know Alice Cooper's song "Can't Sleep, Clowns Will Eat Me"?
I guess Clown school would be fun! I wouldn't mind a whole saturday playing with the cool props!!! Just no makeup!
How funny that I'm not the only one who thinks the BK King is completely creepy!!! What where they thinking....!!!!! Making his head about 40 times too large!!!!! GROSS!!!!!!! And having that thing just standing there outside your window staring at you!!!! 
Amy
Not afraid per se. But the buggers freak me out and I have never really thought of them a 'cute'
I was so angry when my Wilton teacher refused to let me do a different cake for our third class.
I did the cake, but refused to buy the little plastic heads. I borrowed some from another student to stick in during class, and then scraped the decapitated clown bodies off once I got home.
is way freaky 
if I woke up and he was in my bed or outside my window or even if the commercial was on. They need to rethink their marketing strategy. 
Not a big fan of the clown, but it's the monkeys that really freak me out.
jo_ann the movie was IT......and IT was the most horrible clown EVER!!!!! with his jagged teeth and razor nails............he is freakin WICKED!!! My little sister became HORRIFIED of drains after she watched it!!! I HATE HATE HATE clowns.........
my husband thinks its the funniest thing he has ever heard of........my kids think its funny too!!!
The one thing I really really do NOT like and will NOT be in the same room with are dolls.........you know which ones I'm talking about.....the old dolls with porcelien (sp) pale heads!!! Those scare the POO out of me!!!
OH! Don't get me started on dolls, wigs, ect.
When i was younger my brother had a wig he;d wear to scare me. I hate this things and one day when i was in my brother's room about to steal some 20$$ from his safe as usual i saw the wig on the bed ,and i thought it'd move. I got so freaked! I brought it downstairs to my grandma put it under 3 blankets and 3 pillows. I went back a little later and my grandma told me it;d move again(now remember i was little). I was SOO scared i locked it in a closed and closed every single door behind me. god i can never look at a wig the same.
And after i watched chuckie dolls were never the same to me. They just stare at you. I feel like they're ganna come alive and kill me or something.
how I have a horrid fear that a doll will come alive and kill me too!!!!!! I hate hate hate hate them!!! My grandmother gave one to me to take to my daughter............I'm sorry but she never got it!!! It was a 3 hour drive home and that THING was not riding with me!!! I dropped off at a gas station trash can!!!!
I know I'm gonna get a thousand posts about how mean that was.........BUT.........NO WAY JOSE was that thing riding in the car with me!!!!!
how I have a horrid fear that a doll will come alive and kill me too!!!!!!
Just to make matters worse there is an old Twilight Zone where a doll did come to life and kill the people who wronged her little girl owner!
My friend and sil are both freakishly afraid of clowns. Now get this-my other sil wanted to get a family portrait for the step-mil(which is her mom) with all of us dressed as clowns as a mother's day gift. My sil had a heart attack just considering it. Thankfully it never happened cause I wasn't putting on any d&%n clown nose!

geez, that wasn't very considerate of your teacher. In our second class that was the first thing our teacher asked when we were talking about doing the cake. Because if anyone didn't like clowns they could do something else. It doesnt' make sense, because clowns are not the only way to learn figure piping and pressure control.
But to answer the original question clowns don't freak me out, however when I was younger evidently they did, and the easter bunny too (still don't understand that one) But I must have out grown that stage.
I am not scared of clowns, I just hate them LOL... I hate them so much I informed my WMI that I would not be purchasing clown heads to make the clown cake. I made a totally different cake.
I have never liked clowns. They are not cute at all! I don't think I am really scared of them but just don't like em!
I probably shouldn't say this in this particular thread, my questions may never get answered again!!! 
But, here goes. . .
. . .I used to work as a clown!!!
But that was a loooooooong time ago!!!
And the funny thing is that the kids were never really amused with us, it was the parents who were stepping on each other to get to us, especially if we were handing out free balloons!! I was in high school then, and only did it in the summer. However, after seeing that IT movie years ago. . .I hear what y'all are saying!! 
wow.............I hate clowns too!! do you all remeber the movie problem child 2 where they fix jr's room with about a million clowns my mom did that to me once....i came home from school and there was clowns everywhere....... i cried and cried she finally caved and removed them only to set them up in the bathroom .......I never wanted to go in there...needless to say I was always almost peeing in pants.....
as for dolls ......once i stayed at my aunts(by marriage) house and she had ingrained in her daughters head that if you played with dolls after the sun went down that they would come alive and scratch you .....I wouldnt listen and would play anyways....needless to say i woke up with scratch marks all over my body ......so that stopped me from playing with them at night........
now you will think im crazy.......
The Burger King guy is definitely creepy. The new commercials are very weird. I recently took a paid survey for Burger King and told them flat out that I couldn't stand this new marketing gimmick. It's disturbing.
Never thought I'd get so much support for my anti-clown stance! lol This is kinda funny!

Ok, I'll bite...How DID you get those scratch marks??? Please tell me she didn't give you those scratch marks just to prove a point!
I'm not scared of clowns - just really, really creeped out by them - actually, this makes me feel better to admit it, I thought I was the only one! 
tanyap- i dont know but i never went back!!!!!
I am soooo glad that I am not alone. Clowns freak me out (notice the clown in my avatar).......I have no idea what possessed me to make a clown for that cake. It had to be the clown spirits taking over my body!
I really can't remember when I first started hating clowns......maybe after seeing Poltergist but for sure after seeing "It". Pennywise is SCARY!
And the BK dude is freaky......FREAKY!!!
I better stop because I am scaring myself!!
you know what else scares the PEE right out of me???
SCARECROWS!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh my gosh is you want to see me cry...............they are horrifying to me!! I had a boss/friend one time who bought a scarecrow around Halloween and placed it right at the front door of the building.....well I all of a sudden started using the back door which I guess made it obvious that I was afraid of it......one day I got there and it wasn't at the door anymore.....so I thought awww how sweet they moved it out.........I went in thinking I was going to tell him how wonderful i thought it was that he figured it out and moved it.................the damn thing was in my chair.I KID YOU NOT!!! scared me so bad I cried screamed then left for the day!!!!
Clowns seriously freak me out. My sister too now that I think of it. I remember once a clown threaten to turn me into a rabbit and she all but screamed at him that he would not be doing such a thing to her big sister. She was scared enough as it was with out stupid threats. The worst kind of clown is the kind that covers their whole face in white makeup with the red ball nose, and super exagerated smile. If you ever want to commit a crime and have no chance of being reconized, do that kind of clown makeup. Makes me wonder why parents let clowns be with their children at parties.
The BK King is majorly creepy. What kind of moron would dream up the concept for that "marketing character"? Honestly, whos going to eat at a restaurant that has commercials featuring a giant plastic-headed overly happy, but otherwise emotionless and horribly dressed king? I agree if that thing ever showed up in my bed or at my window I would run away screaming, and then call the cops.
