The threequel even add together an acolyte in Art ’s murderous mayhem in Victoria Heyes , the only survivor of the originalTerrifier .
BothTerrifierandTerrifier 2ended with Art appear dead , and yet he was resurrected somehow in both movies , the second clip with significant aid from both Victoria Heyes andthe enervate Little Pale Girl . That calls into question the true nature of Art the Clown , who began the franchise on the face of it as ademented and depraved yet still mortal serial Orcinus orca . While he may have set out out that room , it became more and more percipient that Art may have something far more sinister driving him , andTerrifier 3further explored the demonic hypothesis behind Art and his killer junto .

Terrifier 3 Confirms Art The Clown Is A Demon
The Threequel Opens Up The Religious Connections Of TheTerrifierUniverse
Art ’s resurrection after a self - inflicted gunfire to the head in the termination of the originalTerrifiertook the franchise from a simple slasher flick to something more supernatural . It ’s not rare for slashers to be in effect immortal , as Michael Myers , Jason Voorhees , and Freddy Krueger have all come back prison term and again . However , Art ’s penchant for causing pain , fear , and humiliation in the class of his slaying sets him apart from many of his contemporaneous killer .

That notion was further suffer byTerrifier 2 , which introduced audiences to the Clown Café , which appeared to be Art ’s own personal corner of Hell . Terrifier 3removed all doubt and confirmed that artwork and his allies are in fact demons . All three begin as human beings , but asTerrifier 3reveals , each was used as a vessel by a ogre due to their low or volatile state ; Art was a serial Orcinus orca , Victoria was a mentally ruin dupe of Art , and the Little Pale Girl was an straight-out demon impersonating one of Art ’s former victims , Emily Crane .
It ’s actually imply that since the Little Pale Girl was missing fromTerrifier 3and the last sentence audiences saw her she was bring Art ’s severed headway , she is the demon that possess Victoria for the events ofTerrifier 3 . She may even be a histrionics of Satan himself , or at least a more powerful daimon that the demon in Art the Clown serves . No matter how the infernal family tree crack down , Terrifier 3confirms Art ’s condition as a demon .
How The 9th Circle Connects To Art Being A Demon
A Key Piece Of Art’s Greater Mythology Yields A Clue To His True Nature
Before being played by David Howard Thornton in theTerrifierfranchise , Art the Clown was portrayed by Mike Giannelli before he retired from acting .
" The Ninth Circle " is a reference to Dante Alighieri ’s famous epic poemInferno , which follows Dante himself and the Ancient Roman poet Virgil as they journey into Hell itself . In the poem , there are nine " circles " of Hell , each book for a specific type of sinner , all of whom receive a specific type of penalisation in accordance with their Earthly misdeeds . The Ninth Circle is the bad of them , and is where Satan is trapped for eternity . Terrifier 3 ’s blazing reference to the Ninth Circle confirm that Art and Vicky are product of Hell itself , and are in fact demon .
Can Art The Clown Die If He’s A Demon?
So Far, All Attempts Have Proven Unsuccessful
Art ’s demonic nature casts significant doubtfulness over whether he can actually be killed or not . Through three movies , he should have die at least three metre : once from his headshot at the end ofTerrifier , once when he is behead by Sienna at the conclusion ofTerrifier 2 , and again when he is impaled at the end ofTerrifier 3.None of those " Death " were enough to finish Art off for good , so it remains to be view if he can be killed by conventional means . The more probable path to Art ’s death is related to Sienna Shaw ’s acquire power .
Damien Leone ’s Terrifier enfranchisement continued with Terrifier 3 , which discover one of the franchise ’s major fiber become flat along with many minor characters .
At the end ofTerrifier 3 , Sienna is show being able to heal herself , compounding upon her own Resurrection of Christ at the terminal ofTerrifier 2 . Her angel warrior costume fromTerrifier 2may actually be a mental representation of her true nature , whether she realized it at the time or not . The brand from her Padre was permeate with magical , and perhaps heavenly power so that it ’s effective against the demonic Art and Vicky . While artistic production has survived multiple attacks , Sienna ’s uprise power as the godlike inverse to his diabolical corruption could import his eventual doom .
What Art The Clown Being A Demon Means For Terrifier
TheTerrifierFranchise Is Much More Than A Slasher Series
artistry ’s status as a devil and Sienna ’s status as a potentially angelic counterpart upgrade the Terrifier franchise from a simple slasher serial to something far more complex . While the franchise ’s bread and butter will always be the inventive and disturbing way that Art comes up with to dismember a human body , the overarching narrative has grown into an ultimate battle between the forces of goodness and evil . Magic swords , divine healing , and increasingly heavy religious symbolism all point to the franchise skew more towards the supernatural .
It now seems well within the land of possibility that graphics could be a reflection of Satan himself .
While the monster that possess Victoria may have been kill at the end ofTerrifier 3 , the one that force Art the Clown is still very much alive , and seems to be able to resist Sienna ’s power to a greater degree . That point to Art perhaps having some sort of special status among the nightmarish denizens of the pit of Hell . It ’s possible that he is a prominent servant of Satan , as he look to be inThe 9th Circle , but it also seems now well within the kingdom of possibility that Art could be a reflection of Satan himself .
