The biggest challenge while coming up with this ranking was trying to find good pop culture clowns. It was slim pickings out there.
In pop culture, however, clowns are primarily depicted as nefarious figures who torment and kill people, leading to as much as 42 percent of Americans having at least a minor case of coulrophobia.
John Wayne Gacy was responsible for 33 confirmed murders in Chicago, where he performed as Pogo the Clown, making him a notable figure in the discussion of scary clowns.
This ranking will not help the public perception of clowns as nightmare fuel; it even led to many sleepless nights for the bloggers involved.
