Randall Flagg

Just curious if anyone else thinks Ray Garrity is the Walking Dude (Randall Flagg, the Man in Black, Marten, et. al)? After he won the Long Walk, since he could have anything in the world...I wonder if he asked to end the universe considering what he went through and how bleak his dystopian lot in life was?

Hi All: I'm rather new to Fandom, so I'm unsure of how to go about this. I'm doing an assignment on the discourse between communities and I chose Horror, specifically the community surrounding Stephen King. Would love to connect with more people and ask questions. Thank you,

There are several questions, and I'm sure as this conversation continues, there will be more... so feel free to answer any/or all because any contribution helps! Thank you so much in advance.

1. What drew you initially to connect with other Stephen King Horror Fans in this community?

2. Are you a fan of his film adaptations, or strictly the books, or both?

3. What about Stephen King makes you a fan and a fan of the Horror genre?

4. Are there any rules to this community, that are strictly off limits in terms of discussion and disagreements, aside from the usual Terms of Use Wiki Disclaimer?

5. Who are considered the experts in this community as well as the leaders?

6. Does this community ever meet in person? What parts of the country/world are you from?

7. What's your favorite King Film, Book, or Short Story?

8. Are there any other Stephen King Communities that you can suggest outside of Stephen King Wiki?

9. What are the collective goals for this community, regarding Stephen King-- Is it for archival purposes, fan service, scholarly debates, helping writers/filmmakers/horror creatives, etc.,?

10. Who is your favorite Stephen King character, film, or book? And what story would you suggest "newbies" to start with?

11. Do you see any themes in his work that can be reflected in real-life events/social anxieties? (i.e. Night of the Living Dead is often referred to as a response to racial segregation. Nosferatu and Cabinet of Dr. Caligari are often referred to as a response to the anxieties in the Weimar Republic. They Live by John Carpenter is a response to the Consumerism of the '80s.

12. What are your thoughts on other Stephen King discourse communities like the Podcast-The Kingcast, or The Losers Club (Instagram)?

13. Which adaptations do you want to see?

14. What are your thoughts on Mike Flanagan and his adaptations and inspirations?

15. Which made-for-TV adaptation do you like, why don't you like them?

16. Any favorite portrayals of Horror Villains?

17. Why do you like Horror?

That's probably a lot more than you thought I'd ask, but again, any one question will help me in my research.

Thank you so much!

So Pennywise could've been a victim of it?? We know "It" is able to control people and present it to others (as we see with Patrick and Henry) so Pennywise could've been a normal person who fell victim to It??
