Welcome to Episode 48 of Read Me a Nightmare, I’m Angelique Fawns, your host.  Today I’m sharing a creepy tale featuring a Haunted Circus and a bloodthirsty clown.  

Peggy’s Hungry Haunted Clown first appeared in It Was All A Dream 2: Another Anthology of Bad Horror Tropes Done Right, released this August by Hungry Shadow Press.  

This is a gorgeous anthology with custom art for each story and I share the TOC with some phenomenal writing friends of mine, including Yelena Crane and Amanda Cecelia Lang. 

Check out the show notes for the link to check out the book.  

My inspiration for this story was watching the transport trucks carrying rides trundle into the little town of Sunderland for the annual Maple Syrup Festival.  

Kristi Stewart does a fantastic job bringing this Middle-Grade Horror story to life. She’s a professional voice actor and frequent performer for this podcast.  

Prepare to meet a clown just as terrifying as Stephen King’s Pennywise as we all head to the circus.
