What Would Pennywise Have to Say to Make You Come Down in the Sewer? Twitter Answers

There’s little — if anything — that Pennywise the Dancing Clown from Stephen King’s “It” could say to get folks to join him in his sewers. Or so we thought.

One Twitter user, who goes by Pennydook Shipper, started circulating a meme with a still from the hit horror movie showing the spooky clown peeking out from the beyond a rain gutter with the caption: “What would Pennywise have to say to get you to go down there with him?”

The tweet has taken off, becoming a viral Twitter Moment in the process, as people are chiming in with what would get them to risk it all and hop in the sewers with a murderous clown who lures children to its lair.

One Twitter user said that a simple change in President would get him to join Pennywise.

Even Chance the Rapper chimed in with his kryptonite — apparently Trix will do the trick. (Product placement perhaps?)

An erasure of student loans would get an editor at Huffington Post (and probably most of us) to see what Pennywise is up to in his sewer.

For other Twitter users, it was as simple as these two words: “Free food.”

Let's Revisit the 1990 'It' TV Miniseries: 5 Floating Facts About Pennywise and Friends

With the new film "It" in theaters now, we asked John Campopiano -- one of several filmmakers doing a documentary about the 1990 version of Stephen King's "It" -- to take us deep into the history of that TV miniseries. Here are five things we didn't know.
Stephen King has said he decided to make his scary creature a clown because clowns scare children more than anything else. "They do have that kind of monstrous thing going for them," he told Conan O'Brien.
Jonathan Brandis, who portrayed young Bill Denbrough in "It," had worked on another Stephen King film adaptation the year prior. He did the voiceover for the opening scenes of the 1989 film "Pet Sematary."
Tim Curry's Pennywise makeup changed quite a bit during the production. It went from being very dramatic and articulated to more subdued. Curry had recently worked on the film "Legend" and was not excited about being in a lot of makeup again. He and director Tommy Lee Wallace agreed that he would have minimal makeup.
Despite being set in Derry, Maine, the miniseries was actually shot in and around Vancouver, British Columbia.
Many fans dislike the ending of the miniseries, specifically the scenes involving the giant spider. Even cast and crew members, including Wallace, have expressed disappointment with how it came together.
Bonus: King once had his own scary interaction with a clown: a man dressed as Ronald McDonald once said next to him on a first-class flight, lit up a cigarette and ordered a gin and tonic. He told King he had come "from McDonaldland."
