How Freak Shows Worked

Description: Not too long ago, people would pay money to gawk and stare at a performer with a physical deformity. They were called freakshows and they began in large part thanks to P.T. Barnum, whose circus we still enjoy today. Sounds awful, but some of these performers became rich folks as a result. Exploitive? You decide.
