German clown enthusiast Ortrud Kastaun, has found her place in Guinness Book history for her obscenely large collection of clowns and clown related knickknacks.

Kastaun, who is a recovered alcoholic since 1995, seems to have traded her unhealthy booze addiction for a more bizarre obsession with clown dolls.

With 2,053 clowns in her collection Kastaun has the largest collection on the planet. If you don't find clowns to be completely terrifying (most of us do), you can see her clowns for yourself at the small museum in Essen, Germany, where she has them on display to the public. Take a look at Kastaun's collection in the video below.
