Art The Clown's 5 Grossest Superpowers

Though many slasher villains, from Michael Myers to Ghostface, have been tied to the holidays, Art the Clown seems to only return on Halloween. However, this looks to have changed in the first teaser trailer for "Terrifier 3." Here, we see that the movie is centered around Christmas, suggesting that Art's power may be growing.
This is especially the case if the Christmas we're seeing in "Terrifier 3" is from the same calendar year as the events of "Terrifier 2," as this would suggest that it is taking less and less time for him to return, even from an injury as severe as decapitation. Furthermore, this means that Sienna's blade may no longer be enough to stop Art the Clown.
While we've only had two official movies following Art the Clown in the "Terrifier" franchise, it's safe to say that the villain has more than made an impact on genre enthusiasts. What kind of horrors he'll be unleashing next will remain to be seen, but if what we've seen thus far is any indication, it's going to get a lot worse before it starts to get better. Horror fans eagerly awaiting the character's return likely wouldn't have it any other way.
