For HBO's "Welcome to Derry," the prequel to the "It" franchise, VFX Supervisors Mitchell Drain and Nikos Kalaitzidis from Digital Domain collaborated with HBO's Production Supervisor Daryl Sawchuk to conceptualize and execute the creature design for the Skeleton Man.

This character makes his debut in Episode 103 during a pivotal sequence set in a carnival freak show. Here, the audience is introduced to a seemingly frail old man, who subsequently undergoes a transformation into the ghastly Skeleton Man during a tense chase through a foreboding forest.

The visual effects team employed advanced techniques in character design, animation, and compositing to create this unsettling figure, enhancing the horror atmosphere integral to the narrative.

“IT: Welcome to Derry” is out now on HBO.
