Let’s face it – Unexplained phenomena happens. And it
needs to be dealt with, rather than ignored or dismissed as we tend to
do most times. Haven is a show that has been described as ‘off the wall’
by keen Indian viewers. Because it deals with the occurrence and
tackling of just such phenomena, by former FBI Special Agent Audrey
Parker (Emily Rose), who arrives in small town Haven, in Maine, USA, on a
routine round before finding herself inexplicably drawn to the place
and its ‘troubles’ – supernatural occurrences that mysteriously beset
residents here. Using her own heightened empathy, she and local Police
partner Nathan Wuornos (Lucas Bryant) attempt to help those who need
them most – a man who shadow kills people, a lady who sends off electric
charges that makes human hair stand on end with static, everyday
machines that acquire a life force all their own… In this supernatural
drama series (loosely based, apparently, on Stephen King’s The Colorado
Kid) Parker finds her choices leading her to clues in her own personal
quest – information on a mother she hadn’t known. Nothing is coincidence
as they say, and in inclusive India, no stranger to occurrences of
inexplicable happenings, this show is finding particular resonance.
Eminently watchable, and a family bonder, too, given that shared thrill
of creepiness whilst watching – only perhaps not for the very
young/children, as with most shows in the horror/supernatural genre.
