HBO’s It: Welcome to Derry goes deep into the lore of Stephen King, exploring the cursed Maine town decades before the events of It and It: Chapter 2 along with other characters and imagery from across his many works. The show’s primary source material are a series of interludes in King’s original book, which take the form of fragments of Mike Hanlon’s research into Pennywise’s appearances throughout Derry history.
