A photorealistic close-up of a terrifying clown in the style of a horror film, inspired by IT. He stares directly at the camera with a wide, sinister grin stretching across his white-painted face. His makeup is cracked and worn, revealing pale skin beneath. Red face paint drips slightly from exaggerated eyebrows and a sharp smile, giving him a grotesque, decaying appearance. His eyes are glowing faint yellow, with dark circles and a cold, predatory gaze. His nose is bulbous and red, and tufts of messy orange hair stick out from each side of his head. He wears a vintage, frilled clown collar and an aged, dirty costume. In his right hand, he holds a single red balloon by a string. The balloon floats unnaturally still, glossy and blood-like against the deep shadows. A cold, faint light from above casts eerie shadows over his face. The background is dark and foggy, with hints of a decrepit hallway or sewer in the blur. The mood is heavy, suffocating — like a nightmare just beginning. photorealistic scary clown, inspired by IT, cracked face paint, glowing yellow eyes, creepy smile, red balloon, dark background, vintage clown costume, cinematic horror lighting, eerie fog, unsettling mood
