The Big Show

I've never been to a circus.  It wasn't that I hated clowns, I just severely disliked them.  I felt I had to be polite and smile and nod when approached, but inside I just thought they were stupid and wanted them to go away.  "The Big Show" from 1957 allows you to view clowns, from a distance, in their natural habitat, executing their natural instincts: abducting little girls.

    just reading the text, there is nothing that is not disturbing about this. she's unusually fixated on her penny, the dad, easily distracted, loses his child in a public space, clowns say "get in here. i will get in too. we will find your daddy." ... on and on. this may be the best horror story ever written.

      Truly. I was going to make comments in the post, but really, it stands on its own.
