Your Characters Will Die Laughing! For every childhood disturbed by painted faces, manic laughter, and madcap antics that suggested a tenuous grip on sanity and reality, clowns have been there. Even the seemingly charming and innocent clowns, simple whimsical pranksters and buffoons, but if mortal jesters are bad enough, how much worse are the heinous harlequins that entertain the foulest fiends of the lower planes? Killer Clowns from Hell brings you a sextet of madcap mummers, featuring demons, daemons, devils, and more ranging from CR 7 to 14, each with its own killer comedic style. While each embodies a particular type of cruel comedy, fighting one (or a deadly troupe of them) is no laughing matter. They are as deadly in combat as they are with a joke, and if the monsters themselves were not enough we also provide an assortment of magical treasures well-suited for the reckless ribaldry that these fiends represent and the sorts of twisted treasures they collect. When you unleash these Killer Clowns from Hell on your PCs, they might die laughing or they may live to joke about it later, but either way it'll be a scream! Pick up this 26-page horror supplement today and Make Your Game Legendary!

The frightening yet comic clown is one of the best and most enduring characters in literature, theater, television, and film. Across the centuries, from Shakespeare's Porter in Macbeth to Edgar Allan Poe's "Hop-Frog," or Stephen King's Pennywise, horror and comedy have blended to create the perfect recipe for entertainment. This volume gives an in-depth analysis of the clown horror genre, including essays by revered horror scholars such as Kevin Wetmore, Dale Bailey, Kim Hester Williams, Jennifer K. Cox, and Joanna Parypinski. Their essays cover topics such as nostalgia, race, class, and new portrayals of the scary clown as zombies or phantoms. It also offers interviews with actors and directors working in the clown horror genre: Eoghan McQuinn (Stitches), Kevin Kangas (Fear of Clowns), and Jaysen Buterin (Kill Giggles). Some of fiction's most terrifying creations--like the Killer Klowns, Captain Spaulding, Art the Clown, Krusty, Frowny, the Joker, and Twisty--jig through these pages of analysis and deconstruction, asking what these many iterations of scary clowns have to say about our society and its fears.

This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2013. The chapters within this volume expose a need to discuss and challenge both the practise of evil and the judgement of acts and persons as being ‘evil.’ The reader will find a diverse and intriguing selection of representative texts and themes, including: discussions of the monstrous, the consideration of evil objects, a reading of the wicked language of lying and ‘bullshitting’, and investigations of madness. A range of literature from medieval to contemporary texts, including poetry, novels, television and cinema, are considered and analysed through cultural and historical contexts in the hopes to extend the discussion that intrigues many of us: what is evil?
