HBO releases trailer for "IT: Welcome to Derry."

There has been a lot of buzz about "IT: Welcome to Derry" ever since HBO first announced the series. After all, "IT" is one of the most famous horror stories ever told.

The book by Stephen King was turned into a miniseries in 1990, two popular films have been made and fans are now getting another TV series about Pennywise and terror. 

It looks like it's definitely going to be worth watching, judging from the preview. Give it a watch below, and let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.

There was also plenty of love in the comments section for the first look at "IT: Welcome to Derry":

• This trailer just unlocked a core memory. I’ve been waiting since forever.

Clearly, people are fired up and for good reason. "IT" is one of the most famous horror stories over told, and the two movies from the past few years were both really solid.

Now, HBO will attempt to cash in with a prequel series. It definitely looks promising, and HBO has a very solid record when it comes to King's works and horror.

"The Outsider" is one of the greatest horror shows ever made. If "IT: Welcome to Derry" is even a fraction as good as the series with Ben Mendelsohn, then it's going to be must-watch TV.
