Terrifier returns to Fortnite: How to get the Art the Clown skin

The Terrifier horror movie franchise has returned to Fortnite, with the Art the Clown skin heading its content lineup. It was originally released in October 2025, during the previous year’s Fortnitemares event, and was last seen in the Item Shop earlier in June this year (during Chapter 7 Season 3).

While Art the Clown—as an individual purchase—is priced at 1,500 V-Bucks, it can also be bought as part of the Art the Clown Bundle, which comes in at 2,200 V-Bucks. All these items inspired by the 2016 slasher flick will stay in the Shop tab until November 2, 5 PM PT or 8 PM ET. So, those of you eyeing the same only have a few days to go for it using the steps given below.

Players can don the guise of the sinister clown from the Terrifier franchise and leverage his intimidating look versus other Fortnite players.

This emote combines two essentials from Art the Clown’s inventory, the hacksaw and the bike horn.

Art the Clown skin’s Fortnite Shop history

According to Fortnite.gg, Art the Clown has been rotated into the Item Shop every 2-3 months since its introduction last year. It has had a total of three different runs, excluding the current one. Before October 30, it last went up for grabs on June 16, in other words, 136 days ago. The table below shows all of its stints so far, in reverse-chronological order, and the important data behind them.

Arrival date	Departure date	Total days
June 13, 2026	June 16, 2026	4

Art the Clown Bundle: Worth it or not?

Art the Clown isn’t the only horror-themed clown skin in Fortnite’s catalog, with Jack the Clown-which itself went up for sale earlier in October— also tagging along in the same category. However, the unsettling monochrome aesthetic that the Terrifier antagonist possesses is something unique of its own.

Unlike other Fortnite collaboration skins priced at 1,500 V-Bucks, Art the Clown doesn’t include a back bling, emote, or another bonus cosmetic when purchased on its own. The Art the Clown Bundle costs 2,200 V-Bucks and includes five cosmetics, making it a better-value option if you want the additional items.

So, if you are going to purchase this skin anyway, you should seriously consider upgrading your cart to include the Art the Clown Bundle instead. On the other hand, for those of you who are on a budget and are confused about which 1,500 V-Buck skin they should choose, it’s better to pick any other one that comes with a free item and hence offers better value for money than the Art the Clown skin.
