Mr. Clown

Mr. Clown is a mysterious but friendly clown not a puppet but a actor on Cubey World who is meant to parody Bela Lugosi's portrayal of Count Dracula. He first appeared on the show in the Season 4 premiere in 1972, counting blocks in a sketch with Stu Ketchup and Marty Mustard.

Early days
The character was created by Cubey World writer Norman Stiles. Performer Jerry Nelson recalled his immediate enthusiasm for the character in a 1999 interview.
