The official term for this irrational aversion to red-nosed entertainers is coulrophobia. Did you see Steven King's IT?

By the time I looked this up I'm sure that others have alereay answered, but just in case it's: Coulrophobia
Coined during the 1990s, the word coulrophobia is based on the Greek word koulon (‘limb’) and related derivatives suggestive of stilts and stilt-walking, i.e. the Greek kolobathristes means ‘one who goes on stilts’
