Ever been to a circus?  P. T. Barnum and James A. Bailey merged their circuses on March 28th, 1881 and here is the rest of the story!

Circus Offers Therapy For Those Afraid Of Clowns

Believe it or not, the fear of clowns -- also known as Coulrophobia -- is a big deal, especially in England.

So, a circus there wants to help people get over their fear of clowns by offering a class ... taught by clowns.  This "clown-selling" service will allow people to see clown actors in ordinary clothes before being taken on a backstage tour where the clowns gradually transform into their characters.

They are then encouraged to talk about their fears and dress up as clowns themselves, if they want to.
