HBO’s “It: Welcome to Derry” is a deep dive into the terrible historical legends surrounding Stephen King<\/a>‘s fictional town of Derry and its most famous and unwanted resident: the mysterious It entity that wakes up every 27 years and preys on children. Season 1 takes the viewer to the 1960s, where terrifying and tragic events unfold, and a very familiar family tree stands at the center of it all. “Welcome to Derry<\/a>” prominently features Leroy (Jovan Adepo<\/a>) and Charlotte Hanlon (Taylour Paige) and their son, Will (Blake Cameron James<\/a>) \u2014 in other words, the grandparents and father of major “It” character and Losers’ Club member Mike Hanlon<\/a>.<\/div>\n
