Asked by Wiki User

The clown calls himself Pennywise, or sometimes Robert Gray, but the force (not really a monster, just an ancient, evil energy) behind Pennywise, and all the other manifestations it takes, has no name. 'It' has existed far longer than words or names have, and can only be called "It". It isn't a person, or a thing, or a creature, or a demon. It is just IT.

The title makes more sense in that light.

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Carrie White is a girl who all of her classmates hate, and her mother is a religious fanatic who walks around in a black cape. After she unexpectedly has her first period, she is teased by the girls more severely than before. The gym teacher punishes the girls that were involved and one of them, Sue Snell, feels sorry for what she did and asks her boyfriend to take Carrie to the prom instead of her. But another girl that has been banned from the prom, Chris Hargenson, who is still very angry at Carrie hatches an evil plan with her boyfriend that involves Carrie and a bucket full of pig's blood. But what none of the students realize is that Carrie has the power of telekinesis, the power to move things with your mind, and when they made her mad she uses her mind to take revenge on them.

Did Stephen King make a book of the clown it?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Pennywise the Dancing Clown, aka Bob Gray, was a very old entity that crash-landed on the area where eventually Derry, Maine, would be built, and it slept and fed on human fears and misery. The clown was but one of the shapes he adopted to terrify and kill people. Usually his shapes were tailored to terrify specific people. The clown form appeared to be a more "generic" shape, which helped him to both entice and cause fear in his victims (like Georgie Dembrough).

Asked by Wiki User

It depends on which one, and what makes you scared. I wouldn't recommend any of them to children. If you want to start with one that is on the less-scary side and see for yourself, try The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon.
