Zeebo
Background
Zeebo was a clown who worked for a traveling circus in the 1920's. At one point he stole all the circus' money and escaped to the spook house Laughing in the Dark, but his cigar started a fire and he burned to death.
During the events of Are You Afraid of the Dark?: Season 1 Episode 2 The Tale of Laughing in the Dark played by Aron Tager
In the present time, Girl 1 and Girl 2 are walking through Laughing in the Dark when they come to a room full of numbered doors. They open the door numbered 6 and Zeebo pops out and Girl 1 and Girl 2 scream.
Later, Josh enters the spook house. While walking through the spook house Josh sees an image of Zeebo in the mirror room who mimics what Josh had just said. Josh comes to the room with the numbered doors and eventually picks the right door to leave. Before leaving, he purposefully opens the door where Zeebo is and steals its nose. Before he leaves, Josh taunts Zeebo.
The next day, Josh gives Weegee Zeebo's nose to wear and says he is going to mount it with an engraving which has the kid who beat Zeebo written on it. Josh taunts Weegee who angrily throws the nose away. While Josh is looking for the nose, he smells cigar smoke. Josh finds the nose and goes home and when Josh is eating pudding, he hears a noise and drops the pudding container. The phone rings and Weegee apologizes for being a poor sport and Josh apologizes for giving him a hard time and says that Weegee will only have to wear the nose for one day instead of a week. Weegee asks if Josh will let him not wear the nose, but Josh refuses. The phone rings again, and the voice on the other line tells Josh to give it back the nose. Josh opens the container of spaghetti, and it is full of cigars. He runs to his bedroom and calls Weegee and asks him if he called and tried to scare Josh by sounding like Zeebo. Someone else picks up a phone in Josh's house and says if he doesn't give the nose back, it will come and get it. Someone tries to open Josh's door and then leaves a balloon behind that has give it back written on it. Josh climbs out his bedroom window and goes back to Laughing in the Dark with the nose. He walks to the room with the numbered doors and the door with Zeebo behind it opens on its own. Josh leaves Zeebo's nose behind along with a box of cigars. The exit door opens, and Josh runs out of Laughing in the Dark. The door to Zeebo's room opens again and the Zeebo mannequin once more has its nose.
