For many people, Coulrophobia (the fear of clowns) is all too real. No matter if the fear was triggered by Stephen King’s IT, a childhood trauma, or when serial killer John Wayne Gacy’s crimes became public, the fear is understandable. There is something inherently disturbing about someone hiding behind colorful makeup. The first episode PBS’ new digital weekly series ‘Origin of Everything’, hosted by Yale Doctoral candidate Danielle Bainbridge, has just premiered on YouTube and Facebook and explores the clowns went from characters entertaining kids to the villain of our nightmares. And we have the episode here to share with you (with the show’s permission). The series is dedicated to exploring the idea that the past is always present.

A new image has emerged from Andy Muschietti’s IT, written by Gary Dauberman. Just like the classic scene from the mini series we can see Pennywise (Bill Skarsgard) peering out from the gutter, calling to Georgie. The image, a photo of an IT spread in the latest Empire Magazine, was shared on the “Stephen King’s IT 2017” Facebook page. While the trailer has not been released online, it did play at SXSW. The trailer revealed the scene that opens with Bill (Jaeden Lieberher) making a paper boat for his younger brother Georgie, played by Jackson Robert Scott. Georgie runs outside with his boat to play in the rain. As the boat floats down the street beside the curb, Georgie falls and his boat is lost in the gutter. As he peers into the darkness in search of his boat, Pennywise suddenly appears and the screen goes to black. Hopefully, we will see the trailer released soon. Even though though IT’s
