Hiya, Georgie! We continue our Why BOO! You Know That series with podcaster, comedian, and beloved Tik Tok star Alyssa Sabo (@alyssa_sabo) about the 1990 horror TV miniseries, Stephen King's IT.

What's the deal with the skeleton cab driver? Is Halloweentown actually an allegory for American politics? Let's do this again some time!
