This is battery acid, you slime!


I could never figure out why Pennywise reacted to that inhalant like it really contained battery acid!

I think it was Eddie's belief in it that gave it power over Pennywise. That's what I got out of that anyway. Much like the silver earrings.

Forgive me if this has been discussed, I'm new on here, but like it says in the trivia the writers wanted adult Stan to seem a little off. The strange furniture in his house is supposed to support that. Do you think him seeing the dead lights as a child caused him to be off? Maybe after that day he was a little off in the head?
