Finn Wolfhard Opens Up About Getting Stalked By Grown-Up Fans When He Was Only 13!

Fame usually comes with some negatives in addition to its positives and that is even more the case for child stars! For instance, Finn Wolfhard, apparently experienced something really scary when he was only 13 and shooting IT!

As it turns out, Pennywise the clown was nothing compared to the grown up adult fans that would stalk him!

The teen actor who is now 17 years old, revealed that some adult fans of the IT movie would go so far with showing him ‘love’ that they would end up following Finn, who was just a child, home.

It was obviously all a very toxic situation and now, the talented actor is opening up about it during a new interview with Mastermind magazine

He recalled that ‘When I was 13, some adults followed me back to my condo when I was shooting It. Stranger Things had just come out, and I was by myself. As I walked faster, they walked faster, and I was getting a bit antsy by the time I got to the door. Suddenly, they were like, ‘Hey, dude, can we get a selfie?’ And I was like, ‘No you can’t have a selfie! How about don’t follow children?’’

This is not the first time Finn talks about how intense the fans of Stranger Things can sometimes get.

He’s actually spoken up about it in the past, asking people not to harass the minors in the cast!

‘Hey everybody! I don’t wanna ex-communicate anyone from this fandom, but if you are for real you will not harass my friends, or co-workers. Ya’ll know who you are,’ he tweeted at 14.
