Please keep this clown away from me

I do not wish to see it.

I would like to announce that I do not like this clown.

This clown is, of course, based on the movie IT, a movie I am too scared to see. (I am also too scared to read the book or view the 1990 miniseries.) It is currently making people's lives worse at the TransWorld Halloween & Attractions Trade Show in St. Louis.

There are a lot of bad things about this animatronic clown, but the worst, in my opinion, is that it features a one-armed, screaming effigy of the murdered character Georgie. (I read this on Wikipedia; again, I have not seen either version of IT, nor have I read the Stephen King book of the same name. My friend did bring the book to the beach once, which I thought was weird.)

You can watch this video if you want, but I will not be viewing it a second time. I am done. This clown is bad, and I do not wish to see this clown again.
