The first-look images released last year were tantalizing, but HBO’s eerie first teaser has solidified our ravenous desire for It: Welcome to Derry, a show we’d 100% drop into a sewer occupied by a demonic clown to watch.

"Get ready to go back to where IT all began..." reads HBO's tagline, suggesting It: Welcome to Derry presents the morbid origin story of Pennywise. Set in the 1960s, the plot centres on a group of young people exploring the mystery of an evil force that has been terrorising the town of Derry for centuries.

HBO’s upcoming series’ teaser delves into the sinister origins of Stephen King’s iconic clown, set to premiere this fall on OTT in India.
