The daughter of Slipknot’s ‘Clown’ Shawn Crahan ‘died from an apparent overdose,’ a new report suggests.

Crahan’s youngest daughter Gabrielle was found dead at home last Saturday after police and the fire department responded to calls for a possible overdose.

It’s now alleged that ‘drug paraphernalia and evidence of narcotic use’ was found at the scene, TMZ reports, just three days after the 22-year-old celebrate five months of sobriety.

The cause of death of Gabrielle’s has not yet been confirmed, pending toxicology tests.

Slipknot percussionist Crahan, a founding member of the group, said his wife Chantel, older daughter Alexandria and two sons, Gage and Simon were ‘heartbroken’ over the weekend.

He posted a long message of thanks from the family on Wednesday, just three nights after announcing the death of his youngest daughter from a place of ‘deepest pain’.

His new statement said: ‘Chantel, Alexandria, Gage, Simon and I would like to thank everyone for the endless amount of love, prayers, thoughts, and kindness we have been receiving.

‘You have all proven that there is empathy, positivity, & strength in this community that we call humanity here on Earth.’

Crahan confirmed that the funeral will be held this Sunday, near Des Moines in Iowa.
