Haunted Review - IT: Welcome to Derry Episode 8 - Winter Fire

In the finale of IT: Welcome to Derry , the guys dig into how unexpectedly emotional the ending turned out to be, from the weight of the opening scene to the full scope of Pennywise’s plan. They break down the build-up to the final showdown, the adults’ search for the ceremonial dagger, and how the series gradually shifted from pure horror into something more action-driven without losing its edge. The conversation also explores Pennywise as a character, including connections to The Dark Tower , and how the rising stakes and character arcs gave the finale real impact. As the dust settles on the final confrontation, the guys talk about what the ending sets up, where the story could go next, and why the show ultimately left a lasting impression. Looking back at the series as a whole, they reflect on how it grew beyond nostalgia, deepened emotionally, and found its footing, especially in the final episodes. What started as a familiar Stephen King adaptation became something richer and more confident, leaving them genuinely excited for future seasons and possible spin-offs.
