The image of the evil clown is a development in American popular culture in which the playful trope of the clown is rendered as disturbing through the use of horror elements and dark humor. The image of an evil or scary clown has been used in other horror movies. A well known one is the joker, in batman, who is a murderously insane evil super villain with a disturbing clown-like appearance. Another well known clown character is from Stephen King's novel It, as well as the TV movie featuring Tim Curry, which revolves around seven children who are haunted by an evil shape-shifting creature that often takes the form of an evil clown named Pennywise.
