Reginald “Belch” Huggins Character Analysis

One of the trio of bullies, including Henry Bowers and Victor Criss, who torment members of the self-identified Losers’ Club. Belch got his name due to being “able to articulate belches of amazing length and loudness.” Belch plays baseball and is an extraordinarily large boy for twelve, but he is “big and not really fat.” He is six feet tall and weighs “maybe a hundred and seventy.” He is found dead in the tunnels under Derry in August 1958. Henry Bowers sees him get killed by what he describes as “the Frankenstein-monster.”
