He said what? - Violent J from Insane Clown Posse on the Dark Carnival, a concept on which the horror-core rappers base their music and tours:

"The Dark Carnival really is a carnival that evil souls visit on their way to hell, and they sometimes go through the house of mirrors, which shows them who they really were and why they're going to hell."
