Coulrophobia
October 31 ... who doesn’t know this day?
No one missed the monsters and witches every year. Don’t forget the clowns who are everywhere!
Oh! There's another story to tell about clowns:
We can find them in movies like the Joker in Batman's film and Sarah Jane adventures' series or in novels like "It" by Stephen King
Clowns come from the Germanic,”klönne”, meaning originally “mound of earth ", then finally "rustic man", is a person wearing a traditional costume and an exaggerated makeup.
For the global public they are fun characters but not everyone share the same vision.
Some people have an unexplained fear of clowns usually called "evil clown" until 1980.
Recently it has been named coulrophobia so there's no clownophobia!
The prefix "Coulro" comes from the ancient Greek
"one who goes on stilts" and phobia
means, "fears”.
