Pennywise the Dancing Clown is a fictional character from Stephen King's horror novel "It," published in 1986. The character has become one of King's most iconic villains. Pennywise is a shape-shifting entity that often takes the form of a clown, preying on the fears of children in the town of Derry, Maine. The character is known for its terrifying appearance, which includes a white face, red hair, and a colorful clown costume. Pennywise's ability to manipulate and instill fear makes it an effective antagonist, as it can transform into the worst fears of its victims. The story revolves around a group of children, known as the Losers' Club, who confront Pennywise during their childhood and later as adults when it resurfaces. Pennywise was prominently portrayed by Tim Curry in the 1990 miniseries adaptation of "It" and by Bill Skarsgård in the 2017 film adaptation and its 2019 sequel. Both portrayals brought significant attention to the character, solidifying its place in popular culture as a symbol of fear.
