Summary
“Step right up to see Madam Von Hellscreams ghastly ghouls in her macabre monster menagerie! Giggle at grotesque giantess Gooliope! Faint at the fantastic freak Frankie Stein! Tremble at the terrible terror Tywla! Get your ticket now to see all nine of these weird wonders tonight!”
But underneath the glitz and glamor of the circus lights, those nine ghouls long to be more than circus freaks. And as the cruelty of the world around them—and the woman calling herself Ringmaster—grows, the ghouls only become braver. Maybe it’s time they start running the show

Summary
Orphaned circus performer Rebecca finds a family in Bob Gray the clown and his daughter Ingrid at the Derry carnival. Together, they create magic on stage, transforming personal pain into art that captures hearts. Their bond deepens, and dreams of a shared future begin to come true. But in the shadow of bright lights and laughter, beyond the borders of their cozy world, something ancient and hungry is already stirring—something that has long since turned its indifferent gaze upon the kind clown and his new, fragile circle of happiness.
I joined the fandom back in 2017. After the series came out, the author became active again. Bob Gray—the real Pennywise—resonated with me so deeply that a short story set in the Derry carnival was born, featuring my original character.
Unfortunately, English is not my first language, so I kindly ask for your patience and understanding. I would appreciate it if you could point out any mistakes.

Summary
After being caught kissing a woman at a party, Gwendolyn Bouchard is cast out of the comfortable and lavish life she has always known. Terrified and disoriented, she's soon found by Alice Dyer, who makes her an offer: a roof over her head, food to eat, and a livable wage as a performer in the mysterious Cirque De Effroi. Gwen reluctantly accepts, but the circus, as any circus does, has its secrets - and what starts as a reach for a scrap of her former status turns into an unravelling of these secrets, strand by terror-woven strand. Between trapeze lessons, learning to embrace the part of herself that cost her a life of luxury, and, though she'd loathe to admit it, falling in love, Gwen suddenly finds herself with far more on her plate than she ever bargained for.
The circus is in town, traveller. Why don't you stop by?

Summary
Crocodile and Mihawk thought they'd set the precedent of their arrangement in the Cross Guild in stone. Even the act of assigning themselves as Lieutenants-turned-lovers solidified themselves as a part of Buggy's crew, and the few who had been around the longest in Buggy's crew knew what that meant for them.
Clowns were made to perform, and everything Buggy does is a performance. Only two groups know the real Buggy: his Family, and the ones who cross it. With Crocodile and Mihawk (unwittingly) joining Buggy's Family, they'll find they signed their names to either the best or worst decision of their lives.
Featuring a truly unhinged Buggy, Buggy Pirates veterans who live in their own delusions, Crocodile who's marked down as scared AND horny, Mihawk who finds he's not the most macabre guy in the circus tent, and guest starring Shanks who's stuck between jealousy and pity for the two former Warlords.

Summary
Christine has always followed the traditional path in life, went to school, graduated with her bachelor's in accounting, and went to work at Fresh Mart as an accountant for three years. Nothing about her life can be described as extraordinary. Except for one thing, her secret love for exploring strange places- abandoned buildings, suspected haunted houses, and cemeteries, all of which she frequently explored to have a taste of excitement in her otherwise dull life. However, one day after work, she noticed strange multicolored lights from the forest. Her curiosity got the best of her as she decided to check out the strange sight, only to find a gigantic circus tent seemingly in the middle of nowhere. What awaited her inside was nothing she could have ever imagined.
Based on Lumineary's animatics and The Greatest Showman, this story follows Pomni, aka "Christine," discovering a strange circus that includes all the main TADC cast members!

Summary
The Dellamorte Family Circus is one of the most prestigious engagements in the business, so of course Rook jumps at the chance of filling the open spot when one of their performers has to drop out unexpectedly.
Turns out the girl who dropped out wasn't just an aerial artist like Rook, but also just happened to be partnered with Lucanis Dellamorte. They will need to figure out how to work together, and fast, because preparation for the next circus season are already underway.OR, the one where the author went to a really good circus performance and got inspired by a lovely two-person aerial silks act ;)

Summary
Under gaslit skies, a traveling circus winds its way through Victorian England, trailed by wonder, whispers—and carefully arranged corpses. When a string of ritualistic murders follows in its wake, investigator Will Graham is sent to pursue the truth, his uncanny empathy drawing him dangerously close to the minds of killers. At his side is Dr. Hannibal Lecter: elegant, incisive, and quietly enthralled by both the crimes and the man unraveling them.
At the heart of the circus stands not only the ringmaster, but the Tigress, presiding over her curated collection of “freaks”—figures both grotesque and sublime, each hiding secrets behind paint, masks, and silk. As Will is drawn into their orbit, the circus becomes less a spectacle and more a mirror, forcing him to confront the violence he understands too well and the part of himself that recognizes it. With Hannibal’s gaze ever attentive and the Tigress tightening her hold, illusion gives way to revelation, and Will must question where monstrosity truly begins—within the tents of the damned, or within his own nature.
