{"product_id":"clowns-in-horror-a-film-and-television-guide-9781476678504","title":"Clowns in Horror: A Film and Television Guide","description":"\u003cp\u003e Clowns have always harbored a dark side, but with the proliferation of visual media platforms, their grotesque personas have taken center stage. A far cry from the jovial performers at children's parties and circuses, clowns have become a staple of the horror genre, from blockbusters like Stephen King's \u003ci\u003eIT\u003c\/i\u003e to indie cult favorites like \u003ci\u003eTerrifier.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e This book explores the full spectrum of clown horror, covering both films (shorts as well as features) and TV shows. While it includes additional information about cast and crew, the book primarily offers a broad survey of clowns in the growing subgenre of horror entertainment. Also providing an overview of clown history, tracing the clown's origins back to ancient Rome, this text offers a comprehensive exploration of the macabre world of painted faces, twisted laughter, and nightmares represented in horror media.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Glenn Tolle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McFarland \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.01h x 6.86w x 0.64d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781476678504\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eGlenn Tolle\u003c\/b\u003e is a writer, artist and researcher from Rochester, New York.
