When did it become trendy to be afraid of clowns?

I don’t get the made up phobia. I feel like it’s the same people who say they hate the word moist.

Don't know when it became trendy but I know I watched Poltergeist when I was way too young and this motherfricker was one of the main reasons:
Definitely not scared of clowns as an adult. That is a little weird.

I’ve been known for it for decades, not a trendy thing for me.
Mine is very specialized. Scary clowns don’t bother me in the least. Neither do rodeo clowns or circus clowns.
I just have a legitimate freak out over party clowns.

I've known people who were afraid of clowns way back in the 80s.
Phobias are simply irrational fears/aversions.
Not sure how you could possibly decide if one is more legit than the other.

My cousin is a registered clown, he did his clown college by correspondence when he was in prison. He mostly does bachelorette parties

Don't know but my BIL is one and I look down on and judge the frick out of him for it. He's also scared of dolls and my grandmother has a collection of porcelain dolls and a few of them are clowns. It's always fun to show the entire family what a pussy he is during family get-togethers at holidays.

Yeah, I'm old and know some people who have mentioned their dislike for them since childhood as well. I don't think it's "trendy".
