Fun Trivia
Stephen King's novel is told in two different time frames. In the 1950s portions, the seven members of the Losers Club are children, who encounter IT in various forms, each tailored to suit the individual's deepest fears. In the 1980s portions, the adults reunite in an attempt to finally destroy IT, when it reappears as part of a 27-year long cycle of terror in Derry.

IT Trivia Questions

1. Which member of The Losers Club does not return to Derry?

From Quiz
It

Answer: Stanley Uris

Over the course of a night, six of the seven members of the Losers Club are contacted by their seventh because, after twenty-seven years, it's time for them to reunite and face the horrible thing that they last encountered in their youths. As the murders recommence in Derry, Maine, each of those receiving the call realizes that they seemed to have blocked out that time in their lives, more than two decades earlier, when they came face-to-face with an evil that seemed unbeatable. Stanley Uris certainly thought so; he kills himself, committing suicide in his Atlanta house by slitting his wrists in his bathtub to avoid going face-to-face against It.

2. Can you identify this Loser by the quote? "Don't worry, we're not gonna chicken out. Is there anyone here who's gonna chicken out?"

From Quiz Pennywise- An Ancient Evil

Answer: Richie Tozier

Richie says this to the group after performing a smoke-hole ritual to discover the origins of Pennywise (known to the children as "It"). Richie asks them if anyone is going to back down from trying to stop Pennywise... and no one does.

3. Who was the first to arrive on the scene and discover that George was dead?

From Quiz How Well Do You Know Stephen King's "IT"?

Answer: Dave Gardener

The other three choices were not around in 1957 when George was killed. Boutillier was the Assistant District Attorney in 1985 who was questioning Chris Unwin about his part in Adrian Mellon's death. Reeves was questioning Mellon's life partner Don Hagarty. Machen was a cop patrolling the festival grounds where Mellon won a hat that led three young men to attack him and throw him over the side of a bridge, where IT was waiting underneath.

4. Beverly's mom told her about one of her friends that got in a car accident and broke her leg. What was the friends name?

From Quiz Stephen King's "IT"

From Quiz "IT"s an Easy Quiz!

10. What disease did the real Hobo (not IT) that attacked Eddie have?

From Quiz IT - Starring Pennywise the Demonic Clown

11. An old inhabitant of Derry tells Mike about Claude Heroux and the 'Silver Dollar'. Do you remember his name?

From Quiz 'IT''s Detailed

Answer: Egbert Thoroughgood

Thoroughgood spoke with a real tough accent. Mike says he's 99 years old. Norman Keene is the owner of the pharmacy where Eddie buys his 'medicine', Amsel Binson was a friend of Claude Heroux who died, and Ralph Roberts is the main character from 'Insomnia' which is set in Derry, too.

Pennywise the dancing clown, to be exact.

15. What has It appeared as more than anything else?

From Quiz Stephen King's 'It'

IT also appears as several other things, including a mummy, a werewolf and a skeleton. It appears as different things to scare the different people. It was a mummy for Ben, a werewolf for Richie, and a giant bird for Mike.

16. What was the name of the bully responsible for terrorizing The Losers Club?

From Quiz It

Answer: Henry Bower

The start of the Losers Club seemed to be after the death of Bill's brother, Georgie, and after the children of Derry, at least those in the club, started encountering It for the first time. Ben remembers times between his fleeing from school bully Henry Bower when he saw something on the frozen river in Derry-- not a clown, like many of the others, but a mummy, travelling unnaturally fast on the ice towards him as he ran. And while Ben may have been one of the first to have issues with Henry, all of the others seemed to as well.

17. Can you identify the Loser that said this? "Not yet, since summer vacation's only been going on one hour and seventeen minutes. Give me another hour."

From Quiz Pennywise- An Ancient Evil

Answer: Ben Hanscom

18. What does Richie do right after receiving the call from Mike to come back to Derry?

From Quiz How Well Do You Know Stephen King's "IT"?

Answer: vomits

Mike asks Richie to come back home and Richie says he will. He can't remember why he has to go back to Derry. All he knows for sure is that he is scared.

19. Richie's mom wanted a daughter that would ask for dolls instead of a son who wanted?

From Quiz Stephen King's "It"

Answer: Books on ventriloquism and model cars

Richie's mom was scared of Bill and Richie because they always had a weird look in their eyes. A lot of people were scared of Losers that summer for the same reason.

20. In "Derry: The First Interlude", Mike Hanlon writes of the explosion of the Ironworks, which happened on Easter Sunday in 1906. What was the death toll?

From Quiz "It"s A Doozy

Answer: 102

Eight children and one adult were never accounted for. Puts a damper on holiday spirit, doesn't it?

21. What was the name of Adrian Mellon's boyfriend?

From Quiz "IT" - The Book

Answer: Don Hagarty

Jeffrey Reeves was one of the policemen investigating Adrian's murder. Unwin and Garton were two of the guys that killed him with Pennywise's help.

26. What car does the Belch Huggins chaffeur Henry Bowers in?

From Quiz IT - Starring Pennywise the Demonic Clown

Answer: Plymouth Fury

A pretty glaring link to "Christine", but cool all the same. Belch was driving the adult Henry to the hotel the Loser's club was staying in.

27. What was the name of 'stuttering Bill's' brother?

From Quiz Stephen King IT Trivia

Answer: George or Georgie

Georgie had an unfortunate meeting with Pennywise early in the book and was the thread around whom, for me at least, the story revolves. The epitomy of the innocent victim of evil. Lovely work!

28. What bar did Ben Hanscom visit to take his 'drink'?

From Quiz The Ultimate IT Quiz

Answer: Red Wheel

Ben's favorite hang out...next to the Barrens, of course.

29. Who was NOT a member of the Losers' Club?

From Quiz Stephen King's 'IT'

Answer: Henry

Henry Bowers actually HATES the Losers' Club, and his mission is to destroy them...pretty good reason for not being one of them.

30. Where did the boys of the Losers Club build the dam?

From Quiz It

Answer: The Barrens

Ben ran into Bill and Eddie for the first time when they were in the Barrens as he was fleeing from Henry Bowers and the bullies. Because of their decision to hide him, he decided to help them build their dam in the creek in the woods, using his engineering knowledge (for which he would later become famous) to successfully divert the stream. Mr. Nell, a local Irish cop, later found them and informed them of the damage they could be doing to the local sewer system. Eddie, meanwhile, explored the abandoned house at 29 Neibolt Street only to encounter It for the first time, seeing It in the form of a leper under the patio.
