The Office: 10 Weirdest Things Found In Dunder Mifflin

4. Jim's Clown Painting

The Office Creed

It is no exaggeration to suggest that the Office's infamous creepy clown painting is low-key nightmare fuel. Just imagine growing up in a house with that monstrosity pinned to the wall!

The unashamedly weird painting was introduced after Jim bought his parent's house to surprise Pam in Season 5's Frame Toby. Unfortunately for the new homeowners, the unsettling artwork was apparently crucial to the structural integrity of the house as Jim was unable to remove it despite his best efforts.

Despite the innocuous nature of this scene, Jenna Fischer later confided that watching John Krasinski struggle with the immovable installation was actually the hardest that she had ever laughed on set - with the obvious exception of the glorious demise of Michael's plasma screen TV in Season 4.

Despite apparently being anchored into the house's foundations, the painting curiously pops up again in Dunder Mifflin's warehouse with a For Sale sign on it. The circumstances as to how the Halperts managed to remove it without reducing their house to a pile of rubble remain unclear, but the unabashedly creepy nature of the painting itself lands it a spot on this list alone.
