bullet::::- twisty the clown (portrayed by john carroll lynch) originally was a slow-witted but gentle clown at a freak show in 1943. jealous of his popularity, the freaks of the carnival spread rumors that he was a child molester and drove him away. with nowhere else to go, he returned home to jupiter, florida, only to find that his mother had died. after failing to support himself by selling toys made of junk to a local toy store, twisty attempted suicide by putting a shotgun in his mouth. however, the attempt failed – he succeeded only in mutilating his lower jaw – and he later began to wear a grinning mask over the lower part of his face. twisty then tried to perform as a clown at elsa's freak show, but was turned away. twisty then snapped and went on a killing spree, abducting children to be his audience, while murdering their "mean" parents. he kidnaps corey bachman and murders his parents, after kidnapping bonnie lipton to serve as his audience's babysitter. gloria hires twisty to entertain dandy, who becomes his accomplice. twisty and dandy hold a magic show on halloween, before jimmy knocks dandy unconscious and maggie gets corey and bonnie to safety. twisty then knocks jimmy out before encountering edward mordrake, who was attracted by the noise of the clown's performance. twisty tells mordrake his story, and mordrake deems the clown suitable to be in his entourage of damned souls and kills him. when elsa summons mordrake in 1962, twisty appears alongside the other freaks and comforts her in her last moments. according to director ryan murphy, lynch was so terrifying as this character that "half the time, almost a third of the crew left the set when they shot his scenes because they were afraid of him." in the seventh season, "", a comic book detailing a fictionalized version of twisty is owned by oz mayfair-richards.
