The Laughing Clown, Blackpool Pleasure Beach

The hilarious, freaky laughing clown near the Avalanche and Irn-Bru Revolution at Blackpool Pleasure Beach, Blackpool. I filmed this on Sunday 2nd September 2007 whilst on a weekend break.

Haha You must be about the same age as me then (15). When I filmed this last year, the day before I filmed the clown, we went up the tower and although I am scared of heights, I did lay face down on that pane of glass with my eyes open although at over 500ft, it did sometimes make me be a bit careful....

There was nothin funny about that clown!!!!! I hated it as a child, used to make me either wanna get away from it as quickly as possible or want to attack it...anything to make it stop lol!

@1978JIMD Yes; he was completely unharmed as was his display case. The Laughing Man had been removed for overhaul and winter storage by the time the disastrous fire occurred. Apart from that the Laughing Man's home was outside the Fun House and several yards away from it. Some days after the fire a gleeful Mr. Geoffrey Thompson the Pleasure Beach boss was pictured in the newspapers triumphantly holding old Laughy's head!

My parents told me that when i was little,I loved that clown,and I would just laugh at it.I was a messed up child!

@sniff001 No hun, I'm not kidding - they may have just temporarily moved him to do maintenance on him. After reading all these rumours about him still laughing despite being burnt during the 1991 fire has freaked me out though *shudders.

How could you want to buy him, lol - he's utterly terrifying. After watching all these vids and reading all the comments, I ended up dreaming I'd been cursed by him and I woke my hubby up by screaming in my sleep XD x

[sniff001]

@desmondsdoll You're kidding me??! Really? Wow after seventy or so years he's finally been given the sack. I'll buy him if they auction lol. Thanks for that news desmondsdoll. A little sad if you ask me really. Was quite a character. Wow, thats a shock.
