We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.

Beverly Marsh — The entry states that Beverly's mother is 'referred to only as Mrs. Marsh in the novel,' but in the novel her mother is named Elinor Marsh.
Beverly Marsh — The entry misquotes Ben's love poem; the correct quote is 'Your hair is winter fire, January embers, my heart burns there, too.'
Richie Tozier — The entry states Richie's birth year in the films as 1976, but this is not explicitly confirmed in canon; it is a fan inference.
Mike Hanlon — Mike's mother is alive and a homemaker during his childhood, not deceased.
Mike Hanlon — Mike does not dedicate his adult life to researching the town's history; he leaves Derry after the final confrontation and becomes a librarian elsewhere, only returning later to compile notes.
Georgie Denbrough — Georgie's birth year in the novel is 1947, not 1951
The Losers Club — The claim that the name 'Losers' Club' was coined by Ben Hanscom is incorrect; in the novel, it is Bill Denbrough who first uses the term.
Bill Denbrough — The entry states Bill was born in 1946, but the novel explicitly states his birthday is January 4, 1947.
Bill Denbrough — The entry says Bill gives Georgie paraffin wax to waterproof a paper boat that Georgie himself constructed, but in the novel Bill constructs the boat for Georgie.
Ritual of Chüd — The entry states Bill used the Ritual of Chüd against It in the form of a werewolf earlier, but in the novel, Bill's first confrontation with It as a werewolf does not involve the Ritual of Chüd; the ritual is only used in the final confrontation in the sewers
Ritual of Chüd — The entry claims Bill's avatar takes the form of a silver knight in the novel, but in the novel, Bill's avatar in the Ritual of Chüd is described as a great white shark, not a silver knight.
Miniseries Part One — The childhood timeline is set in 1960, but the novel and miniseries establish it as 1958.
