Scary times are ahead with the newest trailer for HBO’s new horror series, It: Welcome to Derry.
Starring Taylour Paige and Jovan Adepo, the series takes place in the world of Stephen King’s It, following a family who has just moved to 1960s Derry, Maine.
Racial violence does seem like an undercurrent of the series, but that is juxtaposed to the supernatural violence levied against the town by Pennywise (Bill Skarsgård, reprising his role from the films).
