He has now returned to kill all of their children in vengeance. Because he had a crush on her mother, he has saved Mackenzie for last. | |

Pre-Mortem One-Liner: Horny is fond of these. While such is common among talking slashers Horny is of the few with Fridge Brilliance given that in life he was socially awkward and his biggest claim to fame was staring in overly cheesy commercials. "Employee of the month's 'bout to fuck you up!" "I said ... would you like to die, fatass? | |

Deadly Prank: Mackenzie's mother reveals to her that she and her friends pulled a prank on Archie by crashing his 18th birthday and scaring him with the mask of Hella Burger's mascot, Horny the Clown. It went horribly wrong when he got knocked unconscious and the candles from his birthday cake started a fire that ultimately claimed his life. | |

The End... Or Is It?: Before Horny/Archie is killed, he manages to grab Fisher, turning his eyes blood red and sending him to the hospital. Later, Mackenzie visits his hospital room but he has mysteriously disappeared. Cut to a new Horny the Clown appearing back at a Hella Burger restaurant... | |

Expy | |
Drive-Thru / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: Horny aka Archie, of Freddy Krueger. He was burned alive and is seeking revenge by killing the children of his killers. He also shares similarities to Cropsey, in that the fire that caused his death was intended as a prank. The in-universe Horny character is pretty clearly based on Ronald McDonald, since he's a clown who serves as a mascot for a fast-food business (though the use of "Ronald McStalker" as a nickname for Horny at one point implies Ronald exists in this universe too). | |
