Way-Out Wednesday: Fears Of A Clown

Photobucket

I know I show alot of scary-ass vintage clown items around here for Way-Out Wednesdays, for which I can only say: "you're welcome." But clowns are just beyond unnerving. Give me spiders, give me snakes, give me brain-eating zombies. I'll party with all of 'em. But clowns?! Oh hells no. Clowns are the worst.

As is this:

As if his face wasn't just totally warm and inviting (mass murder much?), this thing is actually a kid's lamp. A. Lamp. This thing looks like when you try to turn it on, it turns itself right off. Like the cheesy plot of any Stephen King novel. Children of the Clown Lamp. Clown Lamp Sematary. Sometimes Clown Lamps Come Back.


You're welcome.


Vintage Plastic Clown Electric Light is available on Etsy from seller The Art Floozy.

  1. After watching Stephen King's "It", one can never look at clowns the same way. I actually never found clowns funny. I'd rather look at a bunch of playful kittens. At least you can count on them not trying to kill you! LOL
