[Dr_Manhattan_88]

 

Winter River Connecticut: October 30th 2024

Living in peace for Lydia and her family in Winter River has deemed to be difficult resulting from the incident in 1988. Keeping the powers of evil at bay by closing off the bridge between the living and the dead has taken its toll inside their residence. Keeping the attic closed off to all in the house, Astrid remains curious of the attic and it's mysterious past and what could possibly be inside. All these years Lydia has kept the attic sealed off and The Book of the Recently Deceased in a very safe place where no person would ever find it or be led to use it in the future.

Derry Maine: October 30th

Who remain of the Losers Club, all agree to return back to Derry. The cosmic deity that had terrorized their lives several times before has returned forcing them to meet up yet again. Banding together and destroying Pennywise in past instances made it seem inevitable that he would return to seek vengeance yet again. Bill and his band of close friends may have to find a fresh new plan to banish Pennywise this go around. It seems this time Pennywise may even lure them away from Derry onto unfamiliar grounds to make them easier targets.

Winter River: Deetz Residence

After a major argument between Lydia and Astrid, Lydia leaves the house in anger and drives off to cool down somewhere along the countryside. Lydia also decides to run a few errands to let Astrid cool off. While home alone and infuriated at her mom, Astrid decides to betray her mom's request about the attic and find out what has been hid all these years. When she has entered her eyes open wide. At first she doesn't realize what all the fuss is about trying to keep it hidden for so long. While she starts tinkering with the 3D town model, Astrid spots a small wooden chest padlocked securely. While searching around the room she spots a small skeleton key hanging off the table. When she inserts the key and turns, surprisingly it clicks and unlocks. Inside is the Book of the Recently Deceased. Astrid, very intrigued starts to read one of the ways to supposedly open a portal to the world of the supernatural. It begins by drawing a door and handle on a solid wall and knocking three times thus opening the realm of the dead. Thinking it's a joke she gives it a try anyway. After drawing the door and getting ready to knock Lydia arrives back home running to the attic to see what is going on. In the nick of time Lydia stops Astrid from opening the door. Scared and also upset Lydia and Astrid talk over why she should not of tried what she did and apologized for their earlier actions.

Back to The Losers Club

Through all the chaos, Bill and the crew are led to Connecticut of all places, in order to face Pennywise once again. So far, Pennywise has caused the group pure chaos by haunting their everyday lives with a vengeance. Terrorizing scenarios and flashbacks cause Pennywise to get the very best of the Losers Club. Seeing their lives crumble away after years and years of overcoming the fear, Bill seeks any help he can in order to erase the killer clown.  While traveling to the destination, Beverly goes into a deep sleep conjuring subliminal messages of why they have been called to this particular piece of land. Throughout her strange dream she realizes the area they are headed to what was once the killing grounds of Pennywise before the killing sprees in Derry. Hundreds of years ago before arriving in Derry, Pennywise swept through the town of Winter River giving it the same fate. In a panic Beverly wakes up and immediately explains to the others what was seen in her dream. As the group all listen to her explain they realize that the terrifying past of Pennywise is far worse than what they had originally thought.

October 31st
Winter River: Deetz Residence

When the crew arrive the next day they realize the property is occupied by the Deetz family. Bill, at a lost for words, tries to explain to Lydia why they have been lead here and perhaps use her help a little bit if possible. After they all explain to Lydia what is afoot she proposes an idea that could potentially help them with Pennywise. Although she gives them the initial idea, she refuses to be the one to act on it. She hands Bill the book of the recently deceased filling him in on what needs to be done to summon Beetlejuice. Using Beetlejuice for help is never free she warns Bill, but his power could help greatly in this instance.

With the Losers Club all beaten down by fear and recent attacks they decide to summon Beetlejuice to face off against Pennywise giving the members of the Losers Club a greater chance to survive. Bill says his name like planned...Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! ... Suddenly the room illuminates green and he appears. With a quick introduction from Bill as to why Beetlejuice is being called upon and given the opportunity he could be freed from the world of the dead, Beetlejuice agrees to help.

Shortly after the agreement and plan, Pennywise arrives at the Deetz house starting off by attacking Richie and Mike. Taking different forms periodically to cause a diversion amongst the group, Beetlejuice takes matters into his hands and begins his fight with Pennywise. Can Beetlejuice, using his supernatural power and experience put an end to Pennywise and his hunger for the Losers Club?

This reminds me of the 3-way clown battle this site had years ago. Pennywise and Beetlejuice were the two highest votes with Pennywise just barely winning and honestly I think history repeats itself here.

Slightly leaning towards Pennywise as well. Whilst I think in terms of pure power and abilities Beetlejuice may have this, but he can't match Pennywises' pure evil and manipulation. 

[Peypeypeypey]

I agree with the consensus. Pennywise is the more powerful of the two and Beetlejuice probably isn't up to the task of putting a long term stop to the clown
