** Brace yourself—Pennywise is crawling back into your nightmares. HBO Max just dropped the first trailer for *Welcome to Derry*, a prequel to the *It* films that dives into the clown’s bloodcurdling origins. Set 27 years before the movies, this series will explore the dark history of Derry and the horrors lurking beneath its surface. Mark your calendars for this fall if you dare.
What This Means: ** If you’re a horror fan, this is big. The *It* movies were massive, and this prequel could deepen the lore—or just give us more reasons to sleep with the lights on. Either way, it’s a win for scare junkies and HBO Max’s lineup.
