* [[The Grotesque|The Jester]], ringmaster of [[Circus of Fear|Le Cirque d'Abberations]] in ''[[The Tale of the Exile]]'', is one of these. He has a magically-induced deformity that gives him a permanent [[Slasher Smile]] and a tendency to mutilate others as a form of art.

* ''[[SCP Foundation]]'' has a few:
* [[SCP Foundation|SCP-993]], the "Bobble the Clown" show. Once the program starts, everyone in the room over the age of ten passes out; children under the age of ten report that an animated clown gives how-tos on cannibalism, arson, and a number of other horrifying things.

** [https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-993 SCP-993], the "Bobble the Clown" show. Once the program starts, everyone in the room over the age of ten passes out; children under the age of ten report that an animated clown gives how-tos on cannibalism, arson, and a number of other horrifying things. Worse, whoever is creating the show (and there's a certain amount of evidence that the show itself is a sapient entity that creates and broadcasts itself) appears to be aware that the SCP Foundation has found a way to intercept and block its transmission, as the two most recent episodes shown right before they start blocking his broadcasts are "Bobble Hates You" (consisting of Bobble sitting in a chair and glaring silently at the viewer for the entire episode) and an episode where Bobble breaches classification on Foundation researchers, administrators, and SCPs, including detailed instructions on how to breach containment of a number of incredibly dangerous SCPs, with a special guest appearance by the animated version of an SCP researcher who happened to be passing by the room where the Foundation keeps the recordings they make of the show at the time shown on a clock in the episode.
** [https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-5962 SCP-5962]; this creature is technically a cow, having been born from one at a Midwest American farm, but it resembles a large (4 meters tall) obese ( over 5 tons) monstrous version of Ronald McDonald, and it continually spits out fully-packaged McDonalds products. The owners of the farm sold it to a Chinese McDonalds franchise, where they enjoyed an incredible boost in profits for a while until the Foundation found out about it. They also found out that [[Human Resources|the food was made from human flesh]] - all of it. The bacon and fries are human cartilage and ligaments, chicken nuggets were made from, er, reproductive organs, the bread is made of hair, nails, and skin, and the coffee and ice cream, well… were made from various human waste products. [[Squick|(Yeah, a lot of folks in-story were grossed out too.)]] The weird part is, nobody knows who the victims are or [[The Unsolved Mystery|where the stuff comes from, as SCP-5962]] has never been known to attack anyone (except one time when it spewed hot coffee on a visiting [[The Rival|Burger King]] manager, [[Fridge Logic|possibly the guy who tipped off the Foundation]]), and never really does anything except produce the food - it seems relatively mindless. In fact, when analyzed, the genetic material matches that of still-living humans, who seem unharmed by this process. Worst of all, SCP-5962 is not the only SCP that came from that farm; [https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1458 SCP-4158] is another mutated cow who came from there, and possibly more that have yet to be documented.
** [https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1799 SCP-1799] ("Mr. Laugh") subverts this. While he is a clown, he is not dangerous, and is, in fact, a [[Tragic Monster]] and [[Sad Clown]].

* [[That Guy With The Glasses]] featured a video with [[Doug Walker]] doing a pretty damn good impression of [[Heath Ledger]][[The Dark Knight Saga|'s Joker]] practicing his origin story. An attempt to spin this off into a series called "Melvin, Brother of the Joker" was not nearly as well received, and the character became [[The Scrappy]] among fans. Walker has engaged in a fair amount of [[Self-Deprecation]] about this, and Melvin was killed by other TGWTG contributors during one of the donation drives.

** [[The Spoony Experiment]] featured [[Noah Antwiler]] playing "Chuckles the Fucking Jester", a character from the ''[[Ultima]]'' series. Spoony finds him creepy, screaming when he enters the room. He is also relentlessly obnoxious, making bad jokes and beating Noah with a rubber chicken for not playing "The Game" correctly. After [[It Makes Sense in Context|Spoony's robot blasts him with a laser beam]], Chuckles flees, and a mysterious figure points out his ability to cause great fear, giving him [[Blackest Night|a Yellow Lantern ring]].

* [[The Fear Mythos]] gives us the Jester, a masked psychopath who serves the [[Perverse Puppet|Wooden Girl]]. He sees himself as an artist who has mastered comedy, and views comedy as being anything unexpected. So if you were, say, walking your dog on a pleasant summer day, he might pop out of a bush and blow your brains out just [[For the Evulz]]. The fact that the Jester is one of the few humans who serves the Wooden Girl willingly (as opposed to being unable to control his own body like the majority of her servants) just makes him even more horrific. [http://strangeandsecretfaces.blogspot.com/2012/01/laughter-is-best-medicine.html This creepypasta] gives a pretty clear indication of how utterly insane he is.
