10 Most Disturbing Clowns In Video Games

7. Kefka Palazzo (Final Fantasy Series)

The madness of Kefka Palazzo was first introduced to the world in 1994's Final Fantasy VI, where he served as the game's main antagonist.

He's since gained a reputation as one of the best villains in the series, going on to appear in other Final Fantasy games like Dissidia and Dissidia NT. But no matter where he rears his ugly face, that crazy clown personality remains intact.

Kefka was once an ordinary human, but everything changed when he was subjected to an experimental process that imbued him with magical powers. Sounds great so far, but there was a huge cost: namely, his mind was completely broken, and he was turned into a destructive psychopath.

Kefka has definitely got some of the Joker's thirst for chaos in him, and behind all the eccentricity, you get the impression that he's always a second or two away from committing a terrible act of violence.

All that said though, perhaps the creepiest thing about him is when he spanks his own ass while spouting a cheesy quip. We wish we were joking.
