Incredibly Creepy Clown Masks

Update!

It looks like our friends over at GreatGets.com may have knocked us off our high perch for the best collection of the Scariest Clown Costumes. Not only are these face shield clown masks downright terrifying, they are lightweight, breathable and will actually form fit to your face. Add dark glasses and we promise, you will look truly frightening! And remember, even if you do buy one of the scary clown costumes featured here, we highly recommend replacing the plastic masks that come with some of the store-bought bone costumes with one of the recommended and equally frightening face shields. You will not only look better, spending the extra few dollars is so worth the investment to feel exponentially more comfortable throughout the evening!

WHY ARE CLOWNS SO SCARY?

We did a little bit of research about why clowns with their happy exterior can be so scary to people of all ages. They say 30% of the entire population has at least a mild form of coulrophobia (fear of clowns). One theory suggests that this unreasonable fear exists because popular culture is inundated with scary images of evil clowns ranging from cult films such as Night of the Demon and Berlin Express to photos of serial killer John Wayne Gacey dressed as a clown. More recently, we are all too well aware of the evil that manage to sneak into a theater in the form of Batman's arch nemesis, The Joker. Additionally, not only is it an issue of a hidden face but it is the fact the face is painted to portray a happy innocence that very well may be masking its true, evil intentions.

Clearly, we are not into the whole Halloween clown thing but lots of guys are, so here are a few of the scariest clown costumes we could find!!!!!
