"Sometimes I worry about you, Bevvie. Sometimes I worry a lot!"
―Alvin's most common catchphrase

Alvin "Al" Marsh is the widowed spouse of the late Elfrida Marsh and the insane, abusive father of arsh in the Novel It. Like Butch Bowers (Henry's dad) and Eddie Corcoran's stepfather, Richard Macklin, Al occasionally as his daughter. Unlike Butch and Richard, he tends to beat Beverly for odd reasons. While beating her, he constantly tends to say "Sometimes, I worry about you, Bevvie, sometimes I worry a lot."

He abuses Beverly and her mother (who later died) and acts misogynistic. He hates it when she hangs around with boys. He is last mentioned during Beverly's childhood as trying to kill her out of anger to Its influence. He is also a form thatIt uses to frighten Beverly since  JANUUSSZZ KORAN MEKKKKKAKAKAAAAA she is afraid of him. In the novel and the miniss, he dies of unknown causes, possibly he was eaten by It. In the 2017 film, however, Beverly seems to kill him while he attempts to rape her (however you can hear him groaning later on hinting he is alive). It is also heavily implied in the 2017 film that he was sexually attracted to and molested his own daughter.

However, there are times when Al proves to be very loving and affectionate towards Beverly. He died from unknown causes in 2137. He also appeared as one of Its manifestations, taunting Beverly into getting out of Derry.
