And It also fears the brave children who dare face him. And It fears their power of friendship and youth and love. Everything that's beautiful in childhood. A wonderful metaphor Stephen King created in this novel.
yeah but then again think about all the innocent children IT kills for food, and in terrible ways too. typical selfish evil behavior, you can dole out the pain and death but can't take it yourself. or ITself. or whatever. IT just learned how it made all ITs victims feel.
Some other eternal being, who is the opposite of It, the positive to It's negative. A good entity who (or what) is equally or more powerful than It and is capable of killing It, if he/she wanted to.
I wish I could get the entire book read to me in that voice, it's perfect. IT is such a long novel... I read it once. Every time I see the book I remember it fondly, though now it seems like such a commitment. I have so much else on my reading list!
'It' is worth reading again. I reread it recently more than ten years after I'd first read it and it was a much greater experience for me the second time than it was for the first time. So I encourage you to read It again, you won't regret it. The novel evolves with one growing older and wiser. It becomes richer and gives you more and more. Some books are worth reading more than once. 'It' is one of those books.
These chapters from IT's perspective were always my favorite part of the story. All this insight we get into IT's existence from beyond space and time was fantastic and a total twist with so much potential. Then Stephen King decided he was done writing the book and wrapped it all up kind of disappointingly in a few chapters that just feel rushed.
yeah Mr. King actually gets critcism for that very thing; he gets praised for the epic journeys, but people feel most of his endings are lacking because they somehow come across as rushed. Needful Things and The Stand I would say had the same problem. He's good at climaxes though. just not endings
Arthur Hausknecht I think this narration was King's take on a form of Lovecraft's cryptic and twisted universe. Like how, we humans cannot change the universe itself.
Arthur Hausknecht . But it's such a bloody long book . How can you say it gets rushed . I know both confrontations with it run side by side in the book (kids vs IT and adults vs IT) the final fight has quite a big build up in the book. Not to mention the smoke hole .
Matthew Trotman I'm aware of the length of the book; what I meant was the same quality of storytelling, heart, and horror didn't really go into the last two hundred or so pages that the rest of the book had. Those pages just came off like "If I don't finish this book up now my publisher is going to be further up my ass about it, and I'm fucking sick of hearing about it. There's your fucking finale. Done." It's just Pennywise kidnaps Bill's wife so it's now out never. Good has to triumph over evil. Everyone's happy and safe who mattered. But Pennywise was built up as a more of terrifying entity from beyond space and time in these chapters then It's reduced to a shape shifting spider? It was just felt like a drag to have this demonicish being that's able to manifest fears not be able to easily pick apart the losers one by one, come out the victor in the story, and have that monster show up in other King stories and connect stories weird ways. Like have Pennywise become a Cthulhu level entity feeding off the whole world's fears and flesh, where he becomes powerful enough to manifest his own world's to feast on and kind in the shadows. Like if IT was behind The Mist or The Overlook hotel in The Shining; those could have been awesome tie-ins had there been a more fun open-ended finale to IT.
I guess *IT* is like *The Nothing* of The NeverEnding Story. IT fears ignorance, apathy and oblivion. If people stop believing in IT, or being scared of IT, IT will die.
Alexa Extraordinaire YES! i've always thought the same! the never ending story is one of my favorite childhood relics. the nothing always seemed like a pansy to me because it was dependent on others and wasn't much of anything by itself - hence it being called what it is
Not really. IT doesn't require the prey IT eats to be afraid, it simply prefers the taste of scared food. IT is basically omnipotent within the town of Derry, and only goes through with it's game for the chase. IT could swallow the town whole for no reason if it wanted.
D F so he can just let the victims alive and just feed their fear? And why does he eats people if he's doesn't need to eat humans? It's because he do it for shit and giggles? And he's not immortal? He only lives by fear of other people?
Tim Curry's performance as it was fantastically amazing, but only as an independent project. It didnt feel like the pennywise from the book, as Tim Curry spoke far too elegantly and for lack of a better phrase, like a human. The new it seems more otherworldly and fits in better with the book.
Hose Water Studios Have you read it? If so, how long did it take you? I'm currently trying to finish ASoIaF and was just wondering. I usually like sticking to some series and only read those.
First of all, for people complaining that this is't ASOIAF related STFU. Secondly, I'm a HUGE Stephen King fan and really loved this reading! Your narration is fantastic! Would be happy to see more content like this!
Probably because of the old mythology (I forget/don't particularly care what religion it comes from) about the giant turtle whose shell the world was supposedly on top of.
Man, I absolutely loved this - the narration and the selected excerpt. All of the origin material about It and the Turtle are my favorite parts of the book. Thanks for this!
I have fate in the reboot. But due to separate companies owning the rights to make IT and The Dark Tower. I doubt there will be some sort of connection, unless they have a meeting or slight references.
Steward of Autumn True. Sony and Marvel finally put their differences aside to finally do a conjoined movie together after disagreement. Who knows, we might get connections if Fox and Sony come together on this.
Even if it shape shifted and it inherited the weakness of the thing it shifted to, the inhaler was not battery acid. It was the belief that it was. unfortunately, I cannot read the rest of your reply, as it is blank....so I cannot really know what you were saying.
A Muncle for your uncle it's bravery not the actual battery acid. It's the fact that they were fighting back that made it weak and then while weakened they were able to hurt it
Derpity deep but.... how? lol how does an interdimensional being that existed before time itself have a name? who named it? Itself? or is robert grey just another one of its personas?
Raul Enriquez My understanding is that a man named Robert Grey worked (and/or killed) as a clown named Pennywise. IT killed Robert and assumed the form of Pennywise to lure in victims.
Mordred, Crimson King and Dandelo were the same type of creature. Although IT was far stronger than Mordred and Dandelo due to most likely being much, much, much older.
Dogf ish It isn't a physical creature as far as I can tell. Which makes It different from the Crimson King and Mordred. Dandelo is quite like It however and probably not dead. It appears to exist primarily as a cosmic fart in a realm known as the Prim, which is home to many terrors. Derry, Maine seems to be where it can project a psychic imprint of Itself in order to harvest fear as energy. Likely due to some sort of spatial warp that links Prim and Derry. This is why belief and willpower are as powerful against It as they are. Not because of magic, but because It isn't physically there: It itself is just the sheer power of will of an old cosmic fart that is only partially aware of Its own surroundings. I don't know for sure however, that's just the gist I came up with on the limited information that I am aware of.
Thanks, that was excellent. After I saw the trailer I started reading It for the fourth time. What a great book. Your voice complements It well. Keep up the good work I love this channel.
Geek Remix that's what he gets fir talking mad shit. The turtle was helping the kids the whole time. IT's bitch ass thought the turtle was old and stupid. IT even thought the turtle was dead. IT got fucked at the end lmao
"It" seems to be one of Stephen King's most description-heavy books. Compare "It" with the text in "The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon" for example; the latter has much lighter paragraphs and makes for a much quicker read page-by-page. Even "Cujo" feels far less dense than "It". Not that one style is better than the other.
i wonder if the power the children have is similar to those the kids with the shining have. when IT begs for its life at the end of the novel, IT says that IT can help them live for centuries, similar to the RV people in Doctor Sleep, i wonder if they are of the same being.
One of the creepiest things about the end of the book is how Ben has to smash hundreds of Its eggs. And this in the 85 timeline. Did It reproduce the entire time (eons) it was in Derry?? Did It eats It's own young to become more powerful? Anyway great vids!!
dark towers is great. you "see" it and the turtle finally standoff. creation vs consumption. fuck television, THIS is entertainment. when you watch TV, you, for example, SEE someone get shot, but when you read, your mind's eye, your imagination is the reel. whatever your very own perception of someone getting shot, however visceral or stale your imagination is, instead of ACTUALLY SEEING it, it plays out way more violent (if that's your thing) if you read and imagine it. books will never go out of style. maybe hard backs, but novels and storylines will never die. long live the KING!
sIt's seven (eight, books) - The Gunslinger, The Drawing of the Three, The Wastlelands, Wizard and Glass, Wind Through the Keyhole, Wolves of the Calla, Song of Savannah, The Dark Tower. They're all on Amazon or Audible.
It would fear batman since batman is fear himself and considering he's the only thing that scares scarecrow and he also conquered his of bats and hell becoming his own fear sooo like IT vs batman
You're "It" readings are excellent. Hope to hear many more. You seriously should sell audiobooks. I cannot imagine you not making a lot of money doing so as you are good.
Funny my fear, if it was *my* fear, would actually help me kill it first. My fear knows priorities, killing me kills him, and if he wanted to kill me, he would do it himself. And in the end, killing me as a Human, isn't as fun as killing something that can bring him into existence.
Hi! I really love your content, from ASOIAF to Dune etc, and I was wondering if you you could create a playlist with the different background musics you use for your videos? I really love them and would like to listen to them while reading books on my free time :) If you don't want to create a playlist it's fine but could you at least give me the names of the different musics please? Thank you in advance and keep up the good work, you really have a perfect voice for this type of things! :D
Ok get ready to have your mind blow. IT HAS BEEN 27 YEARS SINCE THE ORIGINAL MINISERIES, IN THE BOOK PENNYWISE HIBERNATES FOR 27 YEARS, ACTOR JONATHAN BRANDIS WHO PLAYED BILL IN THE ORIGINAL COMMITTED SUICIDE AT AGE 27, AND BILL SKARSGARD -WHO PLAYS THE NEW PENNYWISE TURNS 27 ONE MONTH AFTER THE NEW FILM IS RELEASED.
Great narration man!!! It's been really cool lately that a lot of content creators have been making Stephen King's It video's lately with all the new news and trailer for the upcoming 2017 Stephen King's It remake.Thanx man for making this video.It was really cool to listen.Your voice fit the video perfectly,just saying.
samuel smith No, IT is scared of pain, scared of the thing that indicates that it wasn't as immortal and goddess and powerful as it thought it was for million on years in which IT never felt pain, especially not by a group of lithe losers, Turtle, Maturin, who vomited the Earth is just ITs worst enemy, IT and the Turtle were made by one God called Gan, known as the Other and he made two creatures: one represents creation whom is Maturin and the other one represents destruction whom is IT.
Jeb Bush keeps baby turtle figurines in his pocket to give to children... if the turtle spawned our universe and all that encompasses it... if one turtle created the universe, surely multiple turtles...? yep, it's settled. Jeb Bush is the all knowing, all creating, destroyer of worlds.
Hi Ideas of ice and fire! i have a page i think you'll enjoy. it explains how the children of the forset and the faceless men... are actually... the same people. oh and aurther dayne lives!
Hakan Like Jackson Putman said, it's because of the uncanny valley effect. It's not an American thing. All humans are affected by it. Pretty much, if something has human characteristics but has something off about it, we don't understand it and we can't tell whether or not it's dangerous. This is also combined with the fact that clowns have one emotion painted on their face, we can't read their facial expressions. It's like a mask. Our brains can't tell whether or not a human is hiding behind the makeup and if it is, we can't relate to them because they have a permanent exaggerated emotion stuck on their face so we get that reaction where we're not scared of them but we're made uneasy by them. Look it up.
I appreciate all the answers but I'm already familiar with uncanny valley term. That does't cover it completely. I think some elements of horror genre doesn't work globally. In my country(Turkiye) every horror fiction include djinn(or genie) element and that doesn't work on other countries too. for some reason other horror elements doesn't work on our cinema. when I see pennywise's pale bald head I feel like I had an invitation to slap it in the center and lmao.
I think there's just plenty of things from horror movies/books/stories/cultures that can be silly, where as if they happened in real life they'd be terrifying. If i saw Tim Curry Pennywise in the street, during the day with a ton of people around, it may be funny or just weird. If I saw him in the street, at night with no one around, I'd feel extremely threatened lol. I think the scary thing about clowns is not really what they are, but what they could be.
I never subscribed so fast in my entire youtube life..!!! Great work. Great creepy voice. Excellent story telling. Great visuals 👍👍thumbs up. Please keep them coming.
I just finished reading the book today, and from what I gathered IT harbored some very human fears. For one, it feared change, and it hated having to compromise. Two, it hated uncertainty and the unknown. That cold suspicion of Another, a being that was even more powerful than it, was its even greater fear. This is very much in the same vein as existential dread - feeling ultimately powerless in the situation and having no reprieve from this fate. And it feared death or ceasing to exist. I think the most staggering thing about all of this is how it all happened so quickly for IT, like it didn't even have the time to fully process everything that was happening, and it was forced to act out of desperation. However, that was entirely its fault, again. IT underestimated the Losers repeatedly, and frankly was foolish enough to accept Bill's challenge/Ritual of Chud, which served as the gateway to the Void/Macroverse. Because of that, Bill saw the Turtle and felt the presence of the Other, and he was able to draw inspiration from those other cosmic forces against IT. And besides, it was necessary for Bill to fight IT in its true form if he genuinely wanted to destroy it. He didn't just have to hurt its material form, but the deadlights, which were its life source. It was the arrogance; the ignorance; and the child-mindedness of IT that led to its defeat, and that just sad and hilarious to me.

IT fears death. When IT realizes it's about to die, it has a panic attack and resorts to begging for its life.
And It also fears the brave children who dare face him. And It fears their power of friendship and youth and love. Everything that's beautiful in childhood. A wonderful metaphor Stephen King created in this novel.
What is the "Another" it refers to?
reading that I could almost sympathize with IT. Like imagine how long it was alive
yeah but then again think about all the innocent children IT kills for food, and in terrible ways too. typical selfish evil behavior, you can dole out the pain and death but can't take it yourself. or ITself. or whatever. IT just learned how it made all ITs victims feel.

Wrong. He does need to eat people. He just thinks they taste way better when they're afraid.
D F Well I can offer IT food if IT wants it, can't go wrong with that! Who doesn't love food?
The broader cosmology this implies is in many ways scarier than what I know of the source material itself.
Densetsu004, Yeah the idea that it is not a guy in a clown costume but actually something beyond our understanding is terrifying.
Read the dark tower
well, that was unsettling. I mean that in the best way possible!!!! you're narration was brilliant, terrifying!!!! well done!!!!
So any thoughts on narrating the book? That's one of the main reasons I love your channel. Your narrations are excellent. Hope to see more soon.
Alicia Kingston narrating the book would be soooooo long
Broken in to parts, it would make a good series.
do it by chapters perhaps? it would be great!
Steven Webers audio version of IT is amazing!
Steven Webers audio version is the greatest fucking thing ever.
This was an insanely good voice over! You really went into depth of 'it's thought process! Good work!
If there was an "It" audio book with you reading it i would buy it. You have a scary voice when you want to.
That pennywise Voice is fantastic
Almost as good as Tim Curry's.

IT fears belief.
Agustin Camejo the opposite is that it believes fear.
Isn't it that it fears fear?
Li Sp V since it feeds on fear, wouldn't it fear the lack of fear?
DragonHeart 12 it feeds on fear casted on another
Freedomof Speech. So it is afraid of someone without fear?
it fears my anus

you've got me so tempted to read the book!!

What is with authors boner for cosmic turtles? This video made me think of GRRM's use of turtles and Terry Pratchett's.
Probably because of the old mythology (I forget/don't particularly care what religion it comes from) about the giant turtle whose shell the world was supposedly on top of.
There are Native American Creation Stories with this idea. A turtle becomes the foundation of the world.

you ask in the description: "what can hurt IT?" battery acid apparently.
A Muncle for your uncle belief that battery acid will hurt it, and the belief that inside the inhaler is battery acid.

It was the belief that it was.

Raztatic maybe not the WHOLE book. He should skip reading a certain scene.
It's (c) - there are issues.
Raztatic Same
that was a fantastic video. What great voice for reading. You should be a voice over artist
dark towers is great. you "see" it and the turtle finally standoff. creation vs consumption. fuck television, THIS is entertainment. when you watch TV, you, for example, SEE someone get shot, but when you read, your mind's eye, your imagination is the reel. whatever your very own perception of someone getting shot, however visceral or stale your imagination is, instead of ACTUALLY SEEING it, it plays out way more violent (if that's your thing) if you read and imagine it. books will never go out of style. maybe hard backs, but novels and storylines will never die. long live the KING!
is it worth reading all the books for that final standoff?
The Dark Tower is my favorite series, ever, but reactions to the finale are mixed. Don't google or read anything about it. Just dive in.
where can I find this "dark tower" ?
sIt's seven (eight, books) - The Gunslinger, The Drawing of the Three, The Wastlelands, Wizard and Glass, Wind Through the Keyhole, Wolves of the Calla, Song of Savannah, The Dark Tower.
They're all on Amazon or Audible.
80's Baby matthews like Stephen Kings It
What an excellent narration. Now I have to watch your other videos.
It would fear batman since batman is fear himself and considering he's the only thing that scares scarecrow and he also conquered his of bats and hell becoming his own fear sooo like IT vs batman
You're "It" readings are excellent. Hope to hear many more. You seriously should sell audiobooks. I cannot imagine you not making a lot of money doing so as you are good.
Funny my fear, if it was *my* fear, would actually help me kill it first. My fear knows priorities, killing me kills him, and if he wanted to kill me, he would do it himself. And in the end, killing me as a Human, isn't as fun as killing something that can bring him into existence.
The monster's in between the spaces .. with lights so bright you lose your mind. Reminds me of Lovecrafts old ones.
Hi! I really love your content, from ASOIAF to Dune etc, and I was wondering if you you could create a playlist with the different background musics you use for your videos?
I really love them and would like to listen to them while reading books on my free time :)
If you don't want to create a playlist it's fine but could you at least give me the names of the different musics please?
Thank you in advance and keep up the good work, you really have a perfect voice for this type of things! :D
+Zestie The Great Unknown, Long Road Ahead, The Long Note 2, The Hidden. Those are the most common songs.
+Zestie The songs can all be found on RUclips creator studio
IdeasOfIceAndFire Thank you so much for answering so quickly, can't wait to see (and hear!) your next video
Holy fuck you made my spine chill. This narration voice is so much better than the average movie trailer voice
I think IT would be scared shittles of John Constantine.
Ok get ready to have your mind blow. IT HAS BEEN 27 YEARS SINCE THE ORIGINAL MINISERIES, IN THE BOOK PENNYWISE HIBERNATES FOR 27 YEARS, ACTOR JONATHAN BRANDIS WHO PLAYED BILL IN THE ORIGINAL COMMITTED SUICIDE AT AGE 27, AND BILL SKARSGARD -WHO PLAYS THE NEW PENNYWISE TURNS 27 ONE MONTH AFTER THE NEW FILM IS RELEASED.
Bill Montgomery everyone knows this its called the internet
SouthernSamurai nope, I've got mass responses of people that didn't know, bitter much?
Bill Montgomery I like how you assume I'm bitter about a comment
Bill Montgomery John Ritter (old Ben in original) died at age 54. 27+27= 54
Jake Tannen Good call, I was a fan of Ritter to, thanks for let me know!
Great narration man!!! It's been really cool lately that a lot of content creators have been making Stephen King's It video's lately with all the new news and trailer for the upcoming 2017 Stephen King's It remake.Thanx man for making this video.It was really cool to listen.Your voice fit the video perfectly,just saying.
Can you read "the Raven" for us?
That voice is perfect for It. It's almost identical to the voice I imagined in my mind while reading that part of the book. Great narration.
It also fears Justin beaver concerts videos.
Lol
Zebure 01 are you 5
Zebure 01 Justin *BEAVER*
Please sign up for narration because you sir are really good!
ok this guy seriously needs to do the audio book version of IT
Dude. Your narration is amazing. Please do more of IT. Do the entire book. And more horror books for that matter.
so... it is scared of a turtle...
samuel smith No, IT is scared of pain, scared of the thing that indicates that it wasn't as immortal and goddess and powerful as it thought it was for million on years in which IT never felt pain, especially not by a group of lithe losers, Turtle, Maturin, who vomited the Earth is just ITs worst enemy, IT and the Turtle were made by one God called Gan, known as the Other and he made two creatures: one represents creation whom is Maturin and the other one represents destruction whom is IT.
Your voice over is amazing!!! 😱😃 great job it's amazing!
Jeb Bush keeps baby turtle figurines in his pocket to give to children...
if the turtle spawned our universe and all that encompasses it...
if one turtle created the universe, surely multiple turtles...?
yep, it's settled. Jeb Bush is the all knowing, all creating, destroyer of worlds.
daaaamn your voice is what makes this video, good job!
I love this! Big fan of Stephen King.
I would actually pay to listen an audiobook voiced by you. OAO niiiicely done.
Thank you! Your narration is phenomenal. I've subscribed and hope to hear more from you!

nick koch,. Good! cuz they presented alot of facts. the thing about varys, omg mind blow
i know, i like they format so much, they are pretty obscure yet,.
MANNNNNNNNNNN You are awesome! This is so good!
never understand why american people find clowns scary.
Hakan uncanny valley
Hakan they're so unnatural and to happy looking. it's freaky.
Hakan Like Jackson Putman said, it's because of the uncanny valley effect. It's not an American thing. All humans are affected by it. Pretty much, if something has human characteristics but has something off about it, we don't understand it and we can't tell whether or not it's dangerous. This is also combined with the fact that clowns have one emotion painted on their face, we can't read their facial expressions. It's like a mask. Our brains can't tell whether or not a human is hiding behind the makeup and if it is, we can't relate to them because they have a permanent exaggerated emotion stuck on their face so we get that reaction where we're not scared of them but we're made uneasy by them. Look it up.
I appreciate all the answers but I'm already familiar with uncanny valley term. That does't cover it completely. I think some elements of horror genre doesn't work globally. In my country(Turkiye) every horror fiction include djinn(or genie) element and that doesn't work on other countries too. for some reason other horror elements doesn't work on our cinema. when I see pennywise's pale bald head I feel like I had an invitation to slap it in the center and lmao.
I think there's just plenty of things from horror movies/books/stories/cultures that can be silly, where as if they happened in real life they'd be terrifying. If i saw Tim Curry Pennywise in the street, during the day with a ton of people around, it may be funny or just weird. If I saw him in the street, at night with no one around, I'd feel extremely threatened lol. I think the scary thing about clowns is not really what they are, but what they could be.
man, I would listen to the entire book if you narrated it. Good job
The man in black fled across the desert and the gunman followed
Trollioli You even got it wrong
Damn dude have you thought of working in audio books. Great job on the video, well done.

This is great! Read the rest of the book and post it. Perfect
Dude you have the perfect voice to narrate this book
Deffinatly do audiobooks and/or creepypastas. Your voice is perfect for it
"IT" simply fears someone or something that doesn't fear
I just finished reading the book today, and from what I gathered IT harbored some very human fears. For one, it feared change, and it hated having to compromise. Two, it hated uncertainty and the unknown. That cold suspicion of Another, a being that was even more powerful than it, was its even greater fear. This is very much in the same vein as existential dread - feeling ultimately powerless in the situation and having no reprieve from this fate. And it feared death or ceasing to exist.
I think the most staggering thing about all of this is how it all happened so quickly for IT, like it didn't even have the time to fully process everything that was happening, and it was forced to act out of desperation. However, that was entirely its fault, again. IT underestimated the Losers repeatedly, and frankly was foolish enough to accept Bill's challenge/Ritual of Chud, which served as the gateway to the Void/Macroverse. Because of that, Bill saw the Turtle and felt the presence of the Other, and he was able to draw inspiration from those other cosmic forces against IT. And besides, it was necessary for Bill to fight IT in its true form if he genuinely wanted to destroy it. He didn't just have to hurt its material form, but the deadlights, which were its life source.
It was the arrogance; the ignorance; and the child-mindedness of IT that led to its defeat, and that just sad and hilarious to me.
This was very good. I was impressed. I wish you could do an audiobook, even though the book apparently is very big.
The way he says "then, these children." Legit gives me shivers
