What is the significance of the elves and roses wallpaper in the house on Neibolt Street? Jake encounters the same wallpaper at the Dutch Hill Mansion in The Wastelands.
...in the microcosm of our version of the world, Pennywise is all powerful-but in the macroverse, he's chump change...bigger and uglier things crawled from the Prim than clown boy...I agree with you both, Robert Gray and GNTLGNT, that it's something of window dressing or a signpost; I don't think we'll ever find out an exact meaning. I think what puzzles mem though, is what does the connection tell us about Pennywise and his connection to the Dark Tower?
I've always viewed It as a vast, nearly all-powerful entity like Cthulhu or something, whereas The Dark Tower seems to suggest maybe he's more of a run of the mill demon, like the Dutch Hill Mansion demon, or Dandelo, who really seems pretty weak compared to Pennywise.
The Elf wallpaper also shows upbin Dandelo's bathroom.
