Terrifier is an American horror media franchise created by Damien Leone and consisting of slasher films, comic books, novels, and video games. The franchise mainly focuses on Sienna Shaw, a young woman destined to defeat the enigmatic Art the Clown, a demonic serial killer that inhabits the fictitious Miles County, New York. Additionally, the series follows the Little Pale Girl, a sinister entity accompanying Art, and Victoria Heyes, a disfigured survivor struggling with her mental health who the Little Pale Girl possesses, becoming Art's accomplice.
The franchise began in 2016 with a standalone feature-length film showcasing Art, who had previously appeared in unrelated short films and the anthology film All Hallows' Eve incorporating the shorts. The 2016 film had a generally mixed critical reception. Terrifier 2 (2022) was a box office success and received positive reviews. Terrifier 3 (2024) received generally positive reviews and was an even greater box office success, becoming the highest-grossing unrated film of all time.
