I just finish reading this book last night an I got to say it was amazing an kept my interest the whole way through. I just wanted to know a few tings that an there was one part that I got confused at too.
(1) Is Derry a really city in Maine? That wpuld be sooo cool if it was!
(2) That part with the Bradley Gang was super intense...like I felt like I was there at the time with everybody when it was about to go down because Stephen King did such agood job with this part (He did great with the whole rest of story as well) Anyways was the a based off of something that really happen at all or strictly from his imagination?
(3) Last question an this were I got lost at...What was the place that Bill an Richie got sent to when they were battling IT because I didn't understand that part. Was it like in space or another Dimention or what? 
Sorry guys idk how do spiler ting so if ifa modd want to do it on my post I don't mind  |

Dizzy, I know there were several famous criminal gangs in the United States like The Bradley Gang but off the top of my head I can only think of The Barrow Gang from the Thirties and Al Capone who operated in Chicago.

Deadlights
The Deadlights were writhing, radiant orange lights that were a mysterious but very deadly and terrifying, eldritch form of energy that originated from the preternatural dimension known as the Macroverse (also known as the Todash Darkness) and a recurring plot element from the works of legendary horror writer Stephen King including The Dark Tower and Stephen King's IT. It was well known that one mere glance (no matter if a living soul stared briefly or longer) into those bright lights instantly caused death or permanent insanity.
It: The very life essence and even true form of the dangerous extra-dimensional beast, It was comprised of the Deadlights themselves and used that power to blind his fresh victims (usually human children) and robbed them of their conscious minds as It drove them insane as well as left them both immobile and lifeless before It took them away and consumed them. In the 1990's TV miniseries, Stephen King's IT, in 1960, the murderous local bully, Henry Bowers, witnessed It's Deadlights after his failed attempt to kill Stan Uris of the Lucky Seven and survived, but ended up being insane while his hair was turned pale white as a side effect of the Deadlights' power, before he emerged from the sewers beneath Derry and was immediately arrested by the police for the deaths of the children taken by It, which he confessed to while in custody. Also, in the 2017 It remake, Beverly Marsh witnessed the Deadlights and was put into a temporary coma. She was brought out of the coma by Ben Hanscom kissing her. Upon looking at the Deadlights, Beverly, and, to an extend, the audience, hears sounds of children screaming, including an older person who shouted: "HELP ME!!!" This implied that the Deadlights, and, to an extension, It, did not just eat their flesh and fear, but their souls as well.

Info on The Bradley Gang--
Real Life Inspiration
The Bradley Gang incident was likely inspired by the real life Brady Gang Shooting that took place on April 27, 1936 in Bangor, Maine.
