Fans of the [Netflix](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/younghee-doll) Original show 'Orange is the New Black' will delight in making their very own [Pennsatucky t-shirt](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/capsule-tee).

Pensatucky is the resident religious zealot at the Litchfield Correctional Facility. A born-again Christian and a fierce anti-abortionist activist, Pennsatucky has made more than her fair share of enemies. Despite being one of the most unlikeable characters on the show, Pennsatucky is also one of the most hilarious. Her bible-thumping antics are so outrageous, they leave viewers with their mouths hanging open in disbelief. Sometimes, it's the most absurd characters who gain the biggest cult following, and that certainly seems the case for Penssatucky (played by the brilliant Taryn Manning).

If you love to hate her, you can download this PDF graphic of Pennsatucky praising the lord from [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3dprinted-cookie-cutters) store GrafOns.
