From the world of Stephen King and Andy Muschietti (IT and IT: Chapter Two), this prequel series returns to Derry, Maine – an idyllic town with a long-buried evil lurking beneath its surface. In 1962, amid a spate of unexplained disappearances of local children, a group of misfit friends begin to suspect murder… while also experiencing increasingly disturbing phenomena. As the kids set out to determine what’s really going on, a rising unease prompts several townspeople to work together to restore peace – all while a U.S. military operation seeks to exploit Derry for its own objectives. A terrifying, edge-of-your-seat origin story, IT: Welcome to Derry traces the reign of a multidimensional entity in its current, most horrific form: a murderous, shape-shifting clown known as Pennywise.
