Muschiettie embraced that weirder side of Its manifestation in Chapter Two, where we saw the living 30-foot Paul Bunyan statue, the nightmarish creatures that crawl out of the fortune cookies in Jade of the Orient, and the monstrous forms teased during the hallucinatory origin sequence. Other forms include a swarm of piranhas, winged leeches, and of course, a giant spider laying her eggs in the Derry sewers. In the books, he attacks Mike as a giant bird, swooping through the remains of the Ironworks. Those turn out to be visions of the fates that await them if they fail to fight against It.īut It can also appear as much grander and stranger spectacles. She already knew how Stan died, finishing his wife's sentence on the phone, and as she explains later, she has seen them all die in her dreams every night since leaving Derry.
In IT Chapter Two, we learn that Beverly was changed by that encounter, even when she couldn't remember it. In the films, glimpsing the deadlights don't seem to have the same devastating effect that it does in the novel, but there were some interesting side effects. When Beverly is shown the deadlights, she instantly goes catatonic and dead-eyed, floating in Pennywise's cistern until Ben resurrects her with a classic true love's kiss, but once she does, she recovers quickly. We also see subtle hints of the deadlights when Pennywise's eye glow orange throughout the film, first when he terrorizes Mike and again when he retreats to the Well House after the Niebolt street battle. In the film, it's Beverly who glimpses the deadlights when Pennywise unhinges his jaw and reveals a peek at his true form. In the books, Bill nearly glimpses the deadlights and survives, but the only person to fully see the deadlights and recover is his wife Audra. Beyond Its physical form lies what It calls the deadlights, a sea of destructive orange lights that drive most humans insane upon sight.
