Creepy Etsy Heads Part II: Clowns

Is there anything creepier than a clown? I've always found them unsettling at best and off-putting at the very least. The fact that these are considered appropriate for kids is always a little weird to me. Have you ever been to a circus? Yeah. Weird. I understand that being a clown is one of those traditional art forms that dates back to the Commedia dell'Arte, which is something I truly respect, but clowns aren't ever really normal, are they?

Old men, crones, uber-emotive faces, vacant eyes, and lots of makeup...this combination does not a child reassure, nor an adult for that matter.

So, as I started to find creepy heads on Etsy, it was no surprise that a lot of them were clowns...

I know people say that babies look like old men, but when you make a baby doll look like an old man it's really twisted.

Hey little lady...come on over her and give Puddles a big wet kiss!
