If you haven’t already heard, the World Clown Association (WCA) is a real thing and they’re angry. Why you ask? Well, because first it was Pennywise ‘The Dancing Clown’ in IT (1990), followed by a series of creepy clown sightings, starting in 2016, and now it’s about Bill Skarsgard’s Pennywise character in the IT (2017) reboot. In the eyes of the powers that be at the WCA, these events are taking away from real clown jobs. To our astonishment, the WCA also actually has an organizational committee, as well as regional directors and a board.

Look, there is a legitimate psychology to the creepy clown phenomenon, regardless of what the WCA and its members may think, that started way before the release of IT in 1990. Clowns are inherently creepy and have been freaking people out since 2,400 B.C., dating all the way back to ancient Egypt. Plainly put, we need to be prepared. The WCA is organized and ready to strike. When the clowns attempt a takeover, we will know the cult, er, group, behind it and hopefully know how to stop them. With that said, do your homework and check out some other stories below regarding the potential war of the clowns.
