Kitty hacks something up. When I was little I was terrified of vampires. Kitty goes on to tell how she used to be really afraid of vampires and they gave her nightmares. It took me a while to get over the fear, but once I got over the fear, I loved them. Instead of being afraid of them, I embraced the whole idea of them.
Candy loves that they added a clown nightmare because millions of people have real clown fear.
Oddly enough, in the very next exchange, Candy claims to not understand clown fear. Kitty tries to explain by mentioning the particular clown in this episode. Well, yeah, that was a knife-wielding, psychotic clown, but I ve seen plenty of nice looking clowns. Xander stuffing the chocolate in his mouth. Oh, they get deep.
