SyFy Picks Up Stephen King Project

"SyFy has given the green light for a new series “Haven.” The project is based on the best-selling novel “The Colorado Kid” by prolific writer Stephen King. The series has been picked up for 13 episodes SyFy vice president Mark Stern announced today."
.
Stern is quoted thusly: “’Haven’ is the quintessential Stephen King town, full of complex, yet identifiable, characters and compelling supernatural situations. Sam and Jim wrote a great pilot, and we can’t wait to see Scott, Lloyd, and Shawn join them in bringing this town to life as a series. We also couldn’t be more excited to partner with our international Syfy channels and be in business with E1 who will definitely deliver the high-quality production value we expect."
.
And the plot summery: "The series will take place in the heart of Maine in a town called Haven where people with supernatural abilities have migrated for generations because it mutes their powers, allowing them to lead normal lives. At least, until recently. When hot-shot FBI agent Audrey Parker is called to Haven to solve the murder of a local ex-con, she catches the killer but uncovers a much deeper mystery about this town. Each week, as the town-peoples’ dormant powers begin to express themselves, Audrey will try to keep these supernatural forces at bay while unraveling the many mysteries of Haven – including one surrounding her own surprising past in this extraordinary place."
.
Sounds like fun.
