Now the internet seems to have come to the same conclusion about Pennywise, and this new fan theory postulates that he is dating the Australian manifestation of grief that terrorized a mother and her son back in 2015.
Folks all over the web latched into the idea, and the character even started “showing up” at LGBT Pride events across the country.
I guess it makes sense when we look at the details; the dating pool for terrifying gay movie monsters can’t be all that deep these days, right?
This whole thing kicked off earlier this summer when the internet collectively decided that Mr. Babadook is an LGBT icon — a decision that was arrived at when a post explaining that Netflix accidentally filed the horror film under its “LGBT” category surfaced online.
