Watching "Haven"

     I had the joy of taking a literature course in college on Stephen King's writings. It was fun, really. I'd go into the only room we smoked in. It was more a large closet with built in desk. I'd prop open the window, log into the chat room and watch comments scroll by while waiting for the professor to log in. Fellow classmates didn't realize that the professor could read the comments made before he logged in. lol..Some got snagged with less than supportive comments. One knew the professor logged in from home because sound was included and we could hear his children in the background. I totally appreciated the casual atmosphere which facilitated my choice to be a stay at home parent.
     I left off reading Steven King literature over 10 years ago. He lost me with is accident and "Tower" series...not to mention I was over "horror". Now I am watching the series called "Haven" which is now available on Netflix and based on a book he has written called something like "The Colorado Kid". As one who has had "supernatural" experiences, I can totally appreciate the characters so readily accepting of the existence of the "abnormal" to conditioned society, and upon further reflection my own potential, the characters so very willing to compassionately protect the "abnormal" as innocents rather than mere perpetrators.
    As one who has had the experiences of becoming immaterial, non-physical...in one case more of a "wisp", upon impulse and never consciously by pure will....
     What if..........
     What if it is those souls and spirits most inclined toward compassion that transition into that which is perceived as abnormal?
      What if it is those souls and spirits who would find the transition most difficult to come back from that are given to play the role of the self-righteous "normal", "mundane" people?
       When creation tires of the endless strife, when the end game comes......
       We now know predators play a vital role of taking the weak, diseased and the "loss" of them fertilizes the greens.
        Basically::: what if those most predisposed to (most easily called back to) compassion, are those who become the "supernatural demons"? What if you suddenly had vampiric impulses?
