Check Out How STRANGER THINGS Season 2 Links to Stephen King’s IT

Stranger Things got some inspiration from the stories of Stephen King and this is no big secret. The influence of King is felt everywhere in the series, but now some hardcore fans have pointed out some specific moments from Season 2 which connects the Netflix hit series directly to Stephen King’s IT.

EliteDaily suggests that Stranger Things and IT take place in the same universe. That way too much of a reach. However, Stranger Things definitely contains homages to IT and some fans on Twitter pointed them out and you can see them below.

And when he imitates the clown saying, “hey kid you want a balloon?” it is very close to how Pennywise sounds

One of the most interesting thing that was pointed out that involves Bob and how his parents are from Maine and he was haunted by a clown when he was a kid.
