It has the ability to shapeshift into whatever form would serve his purpose of manipulation at any given time but its primary and most preferred form is as Pennywise the Dancing Clown. It would appear to children in the form of someone they trust or as their biggest fears.
The creature particularly tormented the lives of the seven kids who were members of the losers’ club at the time, the kids fought it with everything they had and thought they had finally ended its life at the end of the first film, but what they actually did was force it into early hibernation.
