Returning for its fourth season on September 13th, the Syfy show HAVEN is a thrilling supernatural series based on the short story “The Colorado Kid” by Stephen King. The King of Horror had a spine-chilling idea that germinated into a television series and created something quasi-horror, quasi-mystery, and definitely very supernatural — enough to make your skin crawl and your mind wonder what kind of world you just discovered.
The series focuses on a town inhabited by “troubled” folk. Many, if not all, are afflicted by some sort of supernatural ability. Some are thrilled to discover their new-found power and abuse it relentlessly. Others are shocked and horrified and strive to appear as normal as possible, so that they can go about their un-normal lives inconspicuously. But most cannot control their abilities and events frequently spiral out of control.
Summoned to investigate in the mysterious goings on in Haven, Maine, FBI agent Audrey Parker (Emily Rose) discovered, much to her surprise, that she too may be one of the “troubled” — and may have lived a past lives in Haven under the names of Lucy and Sarah. Compelled by her own murky history and driven to unravel what is going on in Haven, Audrey is inexplicably drawn to Haven — even so much so to give up her FBI position and remain in Haven as part of its local law enforcement. Working with the local sheriff and her partner Nathan Wuornos (Lucas Bryant), as well as the unconventional aid of the town smuggler and resident “bad boy” Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour), Audrey finds unique ways to assist or stop the “troubled” of Haven. The third season finale left fans gasping as Audrey and Duke disappeared into a bright flash of light (presumably transported into the future), with Nathan left shot and dying. To say fans are a little excited about the 4th season is putting it mildly. So this is their chance to try to pry a few secrets and teasers out of the cast at San Diego Comic-Con.
As a special reward for fans and to lure new fans, HAVEN is making an appearance at San Diego Comic-Con with a fan party at the Sidebar nightclub on Thursday, July 18th and an panel on Friday, July 19th (3:00 pm – 4:00 pm, Room 6DE).
