In the past week, a Facebook account set up by the clown - calling himself Cole Deimos - posted images of himself in the darkened streets of the village - and creeping along on all fours over a bridge. In one image, he stares at the screen with a hideous smile on his face, while holding a red balloon. In the book and movies, Pennywise tempts children to their death by making red balloons bob along the road and down storm drains, where he lies in wait to grab them and pull them into the sewers, the Daily Record reports.

Pennywise and the Losers got their first big-screen adaptation in 2017, with the second part (which covered their adult years) released two years later, and with Bill Skarsgård in charge of playing Pennywise.
