Creation
The concept of the Dark Carnival was inspired by a dream Joseph Bruce had after the foundation of Insane Clown Posse wherein spirits in a traveling carnival appeared to himself. The group decided to incorporate this dream into their band's newly created persona. The spirits are each revealed in a series of albums called the six Joker's Cards. Each spirit relays a message through the use of a moral story. With the advent of Insane Clown Posse's second deck (2009), the character Bang! Pow! Boom!, a new spirit in the Dark Carnival, was introduced. The character is a demon-like figure that Bruce describes as a "continuous explosion that stomps his way through the crowd blowing evil souls to Hell". Though the group originally intended to make the character separate from the six Joker's Cards, he was revealed as part of the second set of Joker's Cards.
