Patrick Hockstetter is one of the villains from Stephen King's book It.

Patrick was a very disturbed individual who had a solipistic view on the world and believes himself to be the only "real" being. As well as this, he is also Psychopathic and Solipsistic. He also shows sexual interests such as tugging on girls' hair back at school. His report cards show him as being an apathetic student. He also kept a pencil box of dead flies which he kills with his ruler that he shows as if they're  hunting trophies.

Biography
Patrick had a dangerous illusion in which he thinks he is the only "real human being" in the world. Much like <!--It (Stephen King)|IT]], he also thinks that his actions have no consequence, regardless of how much damage he causes.

This is proven even further when at the age of five, Patrick had a baby brother named Avery Hockstetter. Although Patrick initially had no problems with his parents having kids, He was only worried about whether or not that new child would "replace him" and become a "real mortal" like himself. Patrick eventually became delusional to the point where he murders his own baby brother. On one dark afternoon, Patrick had sneaked into Avery's room while the baby was still asleep. Patrick then smothered Avery to death with his pillow, being sexually thrilled as he does so. Later on that day when Patrick's mother had found Avery dead, she screamed her self to death while Patrick had ended up watching television the whole day, not showing any remorse in murdering Avery.

On one July afternoon, Patrick, along with Henry Bowers , <!--Reginald "Belch" Huggins|Belch]], <!--Victor "Vic" Criss]] ,  Gard Jagermeyer ,  Peter Gordon  and  Moose Sadler  chase a boy named Mike Hanlon. When they come across The Losers Club  in the landfill, the two gangs engage in a rock fight. After Peter and Gard retreat, Patrick and Victor also leave quickly. Patrick was the third person to runaway from the fight.

O n one hot summery day, Patrick, Henry, Victor and  Belch   were down at a local junkyard, lighting their own farts with Henry's lighter. After a while, Vic and Belch leave after a short and brief dispute with Henry. After the two leave, Patrick gives Henry a hand-job, and even boldly offers him oral sex, to which Henry replies by punching him in the mouth. Worried that Patrick might tell his friends about the incident, Henry blackmails Patrick, threatening to tell the police about his "secret fridge" down at the Junkyard. After Henry leaves, Patrick heads down to the fridge to dispose the dead animals he kept in there, only to be attacked by  IT  in the form of "flying leeches" (his worst fear). The parasites drink most of his blood and eventually drag away his unconscious body. By the time Patrick had awoken, It had already begun feeding on him. When the Losers came under Derry, they encountered his corpse.

1985 (Trackers)
Patrick appears very briefly at one of the baseball fields in Trackers Brothers, as one of the manifestations of  IT, while taunting Eddie Kaspbrak. <!--Category:Bullies]] <!--Category:Stephen King Villains]] <!--Category:Book Villains]] <!--Category:Kid Villains]] <!--Category:Deceased Villains]] <!--Category:Animal Cruelty]] <!--Category:Perverts]] <!--Category:Sociopaths]] <!--Category:Psychopath]] <!--Category:Villains With Mental Illness]] <!--Category:Juvenile Delinquents]] <!--Category:Horror Villains]] <!--Category:Abusers]] <!--Category:Child-Abusers]] <!--Category:Child Murderer]] <!--Category:Family Murderer]] <!--Category:Male Villains]] <!--Category:Evil Vs.
