John Wayne Gacy (convicted serial murderer) dressed in a clown suit. *shudder* (i.imgur.com)
submitted 2 months ago by smackNcheez
[–]Baconwrap 4 points5 points6 points 2 months ago
John Wayne Gacy, Jr. (March 17, 1942 – May 10, 1994) was an American serial killer and rapist who sexually assaulted and murdered at least 33 teenage boys and young men between 1972 and 1978. Gacy buried 26 of his victims in the crawl space of his home, buried three others elsewhere on his property, and discarded the remains of his last four known victims in a nearby river. He was convicted of 33 murders and sentenced to death for 12 of these killings. He was executed in May 1994.
Gacy later became known as the "Killer Clown" due to his charitable services at fundraising events, parades and children's parties where he would dress as "Pogo the Clown", a character he devised himself.
Thanks wikipedia.

i don't think clowns are ever going to be ok again. can we please stop making innocent child hood things into stuff of nightmares. i'm looking at you stephen king
[–]Kenpochad 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago
I have a friend that wrote letters to him when she wa in the police academy. She got 3-4 letters back from him.
[–]sl4y4 3 points4 points5 points 2 months ago
Acid Bath used a picture of him on the cover of their debut album. Good band, if you're into sludge metal, shame they split.
Edit: Correction, it's a painting he made.
[–]weedmonkey 1 point2 points3 points 2 months ago
i can't upvote this often enough. it's really a shame
[–]macheesmo 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago
Their second album is a jack kevorkian painting
[–]sknolii 1 point2 points3 points 2 months ago
Word up! I'm a huge Acid Bath and Agents of Oblivion fan.. I like some of Deadboy stuff too and was fortunate enough to see Dax play acoustic a few times.
[–]flowofthought 1 point2 points3 points 2 months ago
If that clown guy from the Spawn movie and IT from Stephen King had a baby.. scares me knowing that this guy wasn't fiction.
[–]Trinexx56 1 point2 points3 points 2 months ago
It's funny because Gacy was burying kids in his crawlspace before either of those.
[–]flowofthought 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago
Ok so if they went back in time and had a baby..
[–]Marble-Boy 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago
The Clown in IT is called Pennywise.. and he's far less gruesome when you realise the guy playing him traipsed around as Frankenfurter in stockings and suspenders for The Rocky Horror Picture Show..

He drew his mouth and eyes with sharp corners. Normally, the shapes would be a less threatening round
[–]handshakeholocaust 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago
I don't know about that. He's rather round himself and I'd certainly consider him threatening.
[–]ipassedoutindennys 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago
Not if you didn't know who he was.
[–]PunchYouInTheVagina 2 points3 points4 points 2 months ago
Fizbo?
[–]handshakeholocaust 1 point2 points3 points 2 months ago
Nope. Pogo.

this again, really?
[–]heresanothersoul 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago
He lived and "operated" in Wichita, which is only an hour or two from where I live...
[–]bassmedic 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago
You're thinking of Dennis Rader, aka the BTK Killer. Gacy operated around Chicago.
Oh, you're right. Sorry about that, I did some research about both of them around the same time, guess it all got mushed together.(:
[–]PplsuckFuku 1 point2 points3 points 2 months ago
Boys!!! I'm a girl he don't scare me!!
[–]RageOfGandalf 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago
Look at it from the perspective that he would have been the last thing you ever see.
[–]thespaceoddity 1 point2 points3 points 2 months ago
I'm just gonna give you a warm thank you for that lovely image.
[–]DogBacon 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago
How much did he make people pay anyways? Because If I paid a clown like 100$ and he touched my son. That would be a huge rip off ! I can do it for free.
[–]Bizronthemaladjusted 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago
It's Pogo, everyone's favorite clown. He'll show you his rope trick, it brings boys from all around.
[–]seben75 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago
On my best behavior, I am really just like him...

The original juggalo
[–]lindzasaurusrex 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago
While I'd normally defend Mr. Gacy, as I'm a lover of all things serial killer, I must admit that I find clowns fucking terrifying. If I saw Pogo in real life I'd've noped the fuck out of there.

Sufjan Stevens, anyone?
[–]Mr_Fignutz 0 points1 point2 points 2 months ago
Came across the word "pogo" carved into the bathroom wall today. It's the only graffiti in the whole bathroom. Had to wonder about it
