Ak si nespomenieš, neprežiješ. Ak si spomenieš, zomrieš. Derry nie je obyčajné malomesto. Pod jeho povrchom spí prastaré zlo. Vždy keď sa prebudí, na niekoľko rokov rozpúta v Derry a okolí smršť neopísateľných hrôz. Strašná sila, ktorú možno nazvať len To, ovláda obyvateľov, vraždí nevinné deti a zdá sa, že ju neuspokojí nič okrem najvyššej obete. Kto ju prinesie tentoraz? Skupinka priateľov, ktorí v Derry vyrástli, dnes žije roztrúsená vo všetkých kútoch sveta. Sú bohatí, úspešní aj slávni, ale nie sú šťastní. A najmä im chýba veľká časť spomienok na desivé udalosti z detstva. Kto im vymazal pamäť? Ak to chcú zistiť, musia sa opäť stretnúť s pradávnym zlom. Kedysi sa mu dokázali vzoprieť a prežiť. Ale dnes už nie sú deťmi a niečo podstatné, čo im kedysi pomohlo zahnať To, im chýba.
