Clowns can be really creepy. Seeing one doesn’t always bring back happy childhood memories. Coulrophobia, or a fear of clowns, is a major phobia for many of us. It’s a pretty pervasive fear, and popular shows such as “American Horror Story” and several movies feature ghoulish clowns, which only adds to the love-hate relationship we have with them. Plus, Halloween is at the end of the month, so all sorts of things horribly creepy and macabre are in full swing. But clown sightings around Dallas – Fort Worth are becoming more common … in a funny-but-not-funny sort of way. See how this business showcases its clown act:

Hurts Donut Co. is no ordinary donut store.

Caroline H. /Yelp Folks around Dallas - Fort Worth have fallen in love with Hurts Donut Co. since it opened in early 2017. Long lines used to form to get in, although business has now stabilized to a popular, but not insane wait time.

Each donut is special. It is baked and then hand decorated, so each one is unique.
