【2014 Archives】

When ITcame out in 1990014 Archives it terrified children and parents alike. The 2017 reboot of ITis still keeping people on their toes.

Twitter user @BornToBriWild's three-year-old daughter gave her a scare recently when she looked down the drain and said, "Hi Georgie."

In IT, Georgie is a little boy who gets lured into a sewer.

So you'd understand why Bri was so scared to look at what their daughter just pointed out, considering the toddler had never even seen IT.

"Against my better judgement i look down the drain AND," she tweeted, preparing for the bright yellow demon eyes of Pennywise to look back at her, "..it's Peppa Pig's little brother, George."

But if she hadseen Pennywise staring back at her, or "anything else other than that stupid pig," she would have ran out of the house and wished her daughter luck.

After Bri's tweet about the drain-dwelling pig, she tweeted a photo of her kids, who actually look a lot less creepy than you'd expect for toddlers who talk to sink drains.

"This is the offender and her little brother who are the lights of my life but also the reasons I'm up at 2am," she said.

They're actually pretty cute. But if Bri hears her daughter talking to the sink again, or sees mysterious balloons floating out of the sewers, she should probably run.
