. Audrey is an FBI agent without any personal ties or any known friendships. She is an orphan and never knew her parents. She is sent to Haven, Maine chasing an escaped prisoner and encounters Haven's supernatural Troubles in the process. After successfully resolving a situation involving a Troubled person she is invited to stay by Chief Wuornos, both for her ability to "see what's right in front of er and her sympathetic method of dealing with those afflicted by The Troubles. Audrey also seems immune to The Troubles, making her better adapted to helping those afflicted. Initially, she is "on loan" to Haven's Police Department, but eventually quits the FBI in order to take a permanent job with Haven PD and continue helping the town in dealing with The Troubles. Audrey is further linked to the town when she is given an old newspaper clipping with the heading "Who Killed The Colorado Kid?", bearing a picture of a woman named Lucy Ripley who strongly resembles her. Audrey spends much of her time investigating Lucy's past and the possibility that she is her mother, but she uncovers evidence that Lucy may, in fact, be Audrey herself. In the Season 1 finale, she concludes that she and Lucy are the same person, moments before a woman identifying herself as "Special Agent Audrey Parker" confronts her and Nathan. As Audrey gets to know Audrey #2, she discovers that they share memories or, perhaps more accurately, her memories are those of Audrey #2. Audrey seems to have had more than one past life, for, beside the evidence that she is in fact Lucy Ripley, in

there is another woman apparently from the past who looks like Audrey and Lucy. When Dave Teagues sees the Troubled Jackie Clarke, who appears to the people who look at her as their worst fear, he sees a woman with bushy red hair, 1950s clothing and Audrey's face (later revealed to be named Sarah Vernon). Dave's fear arises from an earlier outbreak of The Troubles, so the person who is now Audrey appears to return to Haven whenever there is an outbreak of The Troubles. On another occasion, Audrey discovers she can instinctively play the piano, even though Audrey Parker never learned. In Business As Usual, Audrey finally meets the real Lucy Ripley. In the 1980s Audrey, as Lucy Ripley, arrived in Haven and helped the Troubled. The real Lucy explains that Audrey/Lucy discovered something about the Troubles, how they began and possibly how they could be stopped. On the run from someone who wanted to "erase" her, Audrey/Lucy sought out the real Lucy, telling her that one day, she (Audrey/Lucy) would seek her out. At the end of a cycle of Troubles, Audrey entered a building that appeared as a barn and had her memory erased. However, Audrey/Lucy refused to enter the barn and tried to escape, though she was captured and brought to the barn, as explained by Jordan McKee in

. After learning that Simon Crocker was one of the ones who was chasing her, Audrey confronted Duke, and the pair discovered that the Crocker family has been trying to kill her for some time (Business As Usual). Later the Teagues brothers have a conversation which reveals that the person who is Audrey/Lucy has visited Haven before under the name of Sarah Vernon and - as Dave mentioned - before that time at least once more under a name unknown to the Teagues. Sarah is a nurse sent to Haven by her captain—who is Audrey's Agent Howard—to look after returning veterans from WWII (

). When Nathan is thrown back to 1955, he and Sarah have a brief relationship. The Colorado Kid (James Cogan) is the result ( Thanks for the Memories). In season 4, Audrey gets trapped inside the Barn and receives a new identity and set of memories, now believed herself to be a woman named Lexie DeWitt, Audrey was spending her days tending bar at the Oatley Tap Room, a façade created by the dying Barn. She believed that she was an ordinary girl who had been working at the Oatley Tap Room with her new friend Rhonda for a month, when a mysterious stranger named William started to change things. Audrey also discovers that her original personality is Mara, a ruthless, manipulative, mean and devious person that came from the world beyond the Void. She and William are the original creators of The Troubles and both possess the ability to create, modify, and strengthen them at will, however, Mara appears to have a particularly adept talent of controlling and manipulating the troubles. The only person she ever cares for is William, as he is her only weakness because they are connected. Her mission is to wreak havoc on Haven once again and find a way to get William back. In season 5, they first believed Audrey was dead. Mara had taken over Audrey's body, and doing so had killed Audrey. Soon figuring out that Audrey was still alive, Audrey convinced Duke and Nathan that they needed to talk to her as if she were Audrey, so it'd be easier to come back. With Audrey dying in Mara's body, one of the troubles Duke released caused Audrey and Mara to separate into two different people. Not long after, however, Audrey started to get sick for unknown reasons. They believed at first she was troubled, but Charlotte realized that Audrey was dying because of the split. Audrey couldn't survive on her own without being in Mara's body, so she was going to die. Charlotte was the only person with the means to merge them back together, and Charlotte was going to make Mara the predominant mind in their body. Audrey was willing to sacrifice herself in Mara's body if it meant that Mara was going to be a better person, but Charlotte at the last second made Audrey the controller of their body. Towards the end of the season, they decided to make a new barn to destroy the troubles. In order to do that, however, they needed to sacrifice someone's love. They had originally wanted to sacrifice Croatoan, but he didn't love anyone, so they decided to sacrifice Audrey instead. A while after the sacrifice, she came back with a new personality. Her name is Paige, and she had a baby boy named James. Nathan stopped his car to help her after her car wouldn't start, linking back to the beginning of the series. In the barn Vince said that she couldn't come back as Audrey so she chose to come back as someone new so Nathan could fall in love with her all over again.

. Nathan is a local police officer who becomes Audrey's partner. He doesn't have the sensation of touch. His relationship with his father, the Chief of Police, Garland Wuornos, is problematic. In fact, Nathan discovers he isn't his real father in the Season 1 finale when a man named Max Hansen, who also cannot feel pain, comes back to town. As time passes after the Chief's death Nathan comes more and more to appreciate him and wishes he could have asked him the right questions while he was still alive to have understood him better then. Though he will always be "the Chief", the term, once a rejection of a father, becomes a sign of affection. Nathan has a condition that he calls

In one instance, they had a competition to see how many tacks they could stick in Nathan's back before being caught. They then convinced Nathan to talk to a popular girl who was horrified when she saw his condition. Nathan blames Duke for triggering the return of his Trouble as it reemerged during a fight between the two of them. Because of their past, Nathan and Duke resent one another, though their mutual interest in Audrey's well-being has helped to improve their relationship. In

(season 1; guest seasons 2-3), was the Haven Chief of Police. He is very hard on his son, Nathan, and claims that he is trying to toughen him up so Nathan can better deal with The Troubles. The Chief has taken a liking to Audrey because she can handle The Troubles well and hopes this talent will rub off on Nathan (and the fact that he knew Lucy Ripley). He offered Audrey a job with the Haven Police in return for helping her find out about the Colorado Kid murder and the identity of the woman in the picture. It is later revealed that he is Nathan's adoptive father, who took Nathan in after his real father, Max Hansen, was investigated for the murder of the Colorado Kid. In the Season 1 finale it is revealed that Chief Wuornos is also Troubled: the cracks that are seen around Haven are the manifestations of his affliction. He had been able to control his Trouble until Max Hansen came back to town. This led to him losing control and first the lighthouse cracked up, then a crack in a road appeared that swallowed Hansen. When the struggles became too much for him, he shattered into stones rather than cause Haven to crack apart and be destroyed. Before this happens he explains that he had been holding it together for such a long time, waiting for Audrey to arrive on the scene, but not everyone is thrilled she's back. In the Season 2 finale the ghost of Garland Wuornos returns to Haven along with a number of the Haven dead. He is proud of Nathan and gives him encouragement to continue, though discourages Nathan's feelings for Audrey. She is too important to allow feelings to cloud one's judgment and cause errors. He departs with the death of Kyle Hopkins, the Troubled gravedigger who was responsible for the ghosts' presence. His most recent appearance was in the episode (Sarah) where he is found in both alternated Haven and in 1955 Haven. In the alternated Haven, he tries to help Audrey and Claire escape and in 1955 as a young boy played by (Jordan Poole) sitting outside the Haven Police Station where Nathan encounters him.


Duke Crocker

Eric Balfour Eric Salter Balfour (born April 24, 1977) is an American actor and singer. He is the lead singer of Born as Ghosts, formerly known as Fredalba. He made his film debut in the drama ''Shattered Image'' (1998), followed by roles in ''What Women Want' ...
. Duke is a charming young rogue who runs a shady import/export business from his boat, the ''Cape Rouge'', no questions asked. He will move things for most people if the price is right and he doesn't care to know what it is he is moving. The police, including Nathan, believe him to be a smuggler. People of questionable repute sometimes come to him to get quiet passage out of the country. Recently, with The Troubles and with his acquisition of the Grey Gull restaurant, he has taken on a more civic attitude to his business affairs. Duke was also the little boy in the 'Colorado Kid' picture. He and Nathan do not get along and he seems to have taken a liking to Audrey, to Nathan's annoyance. He has taken over the diner formerly owned by a friend who was forced out of business by an affliction that is part of the recent recurrence of The Troubles. Vanessa Stanley, afflicted with the sight of a person's death when she touches them, told Duke he would die at the hand of someone with the same maze tattoo as the person who killed the Colorado Kid. In "A Tale Of Two Audreys", it is revealed that he is married to a woman named Evi. Duke has come back to Haven because of his father, Simon Crocker, who had made him promise to return if The Troubles ever broke out again. He didn't tell Duke why before he died, but Duke has fulfilled the promise. Duke discovers his father was killed during the previous outbreak of The Troubles. The Rev. Ed Driscoll has been using Evi to manipulate Duke who he believes will be important in dealing with The Troubles. After a lengthy search, Duke eventually unravels the mystery of a silver box he and Evi found. It contains a number of artifacts and weapons, as well as a family journal. In his father's entries Duke discovers why his father wanted him to return to Haven: to kill the woman now known as Audrey Parker. Duke then learns that he has inherited his father's trouble: the power to 'destroy' other troubles (which his father refers to as 'curses') so that they will no longer be passed down to the next generation. The catch is that he must kill the person currently exhibiting a trouble to destroy that trouble permanently. When a Crocker injures or kills someone with a Trouble, contact with their blood causes him to enter a partially enraged state, which also dramatically enhances his strength. Duke, however, refuses to give in to his Trouble and buries the box at his father's grave. He avoids using his Trouble except when it can be beneficial, for example when he rescued Daphne ( Over My Head). Duke has always had an affinity for Audrey and, while Nathan was involved with Jordan McKee, it almost blossomed into a physical relationship, but, after a heavy kiss in Colorado, Audrey thought it wiser not to go further ( Magic Hour). In "Thanks for the Memories" Duke dives into the barn as it disappears, shortly after admitting to Nathan that he indeed has feelings for Audrey. Duke emerges from the barn to discover that six months have passed and most in Haven believe him dead. He helps Nathan get back to the town to help out the Troubled and is surprised to find that in his absence, his brother Wade has taken over the bar. When Wade discovers his wife has been cheating on him, he decides to stay in the town with Duke helping his brother out.

In the first season, Driscoll sees The Troubles as a curse from God, because of wrongdoings by the townspeople. He wants all the Troubled people to ask for God's forgiveness. In the second season, he seems to have a more mundane view of The Troubles, seeing them a threat that can and must be eliminated, a belief that seems to stem from the loss of his wife and all others The Troubles have killed.

As he gets to know her he finds her "amazing". They get closer to each other and develop a romantic relationship, until Audrey experiences his death in her cyclically repeated day off ( Audrey Parker's Day Off). She realizes that it is selfish of her to think of Chris when she has to save all the Troubled people in Haven. She sends Chris off to London. He returns later (

He kills people for their skins, people including Tommy, Roslyn Toomey, and the Guardsman, Grady. He was not killed in the boat explosion, as Tommy's skin is later found in the Bolt Gun Killer's lair.


Jordan McKee

Jordan, played by Kate Kelton (seasons 3–4), is a waitress at the Gun & Rose Cafe. She always wears gloves because she is a Troubled person—her touch causes intense pain, so she can never touch people and so never get close to anyone. Her Trouble was triggered when she was raped. She became a patient of Claire Callahan, though Claire stopped treating her when it was discovered that she had captured her rapist and tortured him for three days with her "tazer" touch. Jordan now works for the Guard, a group of Troubled people who look after their own any way they can, including bringing newly afflicted people to Haven; they are the townspeople who bear the maze tattoo. Nathan contacts her trying to infiltrate the Guard, as a tattooed person is the Bolt-Gun Killer. What started out as a police investigation leads Nathan into a relationship with Jordan, after Audrey had become aloof. Nathan cannot feel the pain of Jordan's touch so she can be intimate with him. Nathan has some commitment to Jordan, despite the fact that she used him to help a prisoner escape. The prisoner she helped was Troubled and she was doing her job. The two continued their relationship until the episode "Burned", in which Jordan attempts to kidnap a Troubled girl named Ginger with the hopes of using her as a means of forcing Audrey to enter the barn which appears to have something to do with the Troubles. Although Jordan has no idea what the connection is between Audrey and the barn, she reveals to Nathan, Audrey, and Duke, that once the barn appears and Audrey enters it, both disappear, bringing the Troubles to an end for twenty-seven years, when they return and Audrey is needed again. Though arrested by Nathan, he exchanges her for Ginger and her father who were prisoners of the Guard. With this her relationship with Nathan ends. When Audrey steps into the barn, Jordan is shot after she shoots Nathan, as he was trying to stop the process that would take the Troubles. It is revealed in the comic ''Haven: After the Storm'' that she survived the gunshot wound. In

. Vanessa was a Troubled person, whose affliction caused her to see the last thing a person she touches sees, which means how the person dies. When she was young she was Duke Crocker's babysitter and she was also present the day the Colorado Kid was killed. Her affliction caused her so much difficulty she preferred to die rather than live with the grief, unable to prevent what she saw. One of the people she touched was Duke Crocker, which caused her to see how Duke would die. She saw a hand belonging to an arm with a maze tattoo coming towards his face. From this time on Duke became very interested in the tattoo. ( The Hand You're Dealt)


Max Hansen

Played by John Bourgeois. Hansen was the biological father of Nathan Wuornos. During the previous outbreak of The Troubles he was sent to prison for the murder of a Haven family. Chief Garland Wuornos was convinced he also murdered the Colorado Kid. When he was released from prison he came back to Haven to claim the family that was taken from him, i.e. Nathan, and to seek revenge. He indicated that he had a lot of support in the town. Hansen was a Troubled person, who like his son could not feel anything. When he sees Audrey he seems to recognize her, obviously remembering Lucy Ripley, and responding to Audrey's question "Do I know you?" he says, "Maybe you do. You'll figure it out." When leaving he mysteriously wishes her good luck. Hansen knows Vince and Dave Teagues and indicates that Dave owes him for something. When Audrey later accuses him of killing the Colorado Kid, Hansen, noticeably angered, responded that Garland Wuornos thought so, but he never proved it. When he sees Vince he threatens to kill him the next time he sees him and Vince responds that he couldn't get it done the last time. Hansen had a tattoo on his arm in the form of a maze. Duke Crocker believed that he was the person who would kill him. Hansen's return disturbed Chief Wuornos so much that he lost control of his own affliction which led to Hansen being swallowed up by a crack in the road. (

The Colorado Kid

The Colorado Kid is a character who is mentioned but does not appear until a flashback in the middle of season 3. He disappeared and may have been murdered in 1983 during the previous outbreak of The Troubles, though no-one in Haven can remember anything about the event. In fact the evidence box held at the police station, though sealed when examined, contained nothing. The ''Haven Herald'' published a photograph to go with its front-page story on the police investigation. The photo shows a body propped up against a wooden pier, observed by a young woman, Lucy Ripley, and a young boy, Duke Crocker, with a police photographer, Morris Crane, and a policeman, the young Garland Wuornos, tending three onlookers. One of these onlookers is young Vanessa Stanley. In the episode The Hand You're Dealt, Stanley tells Duke that the man who killed the Colorado Kid had a tattoo and that same person would eventually kill him. Chief Wuornos is convinced that Max Hansen killed the Colorado Kid. While Hansen has the tattoo, he indicates that he didn't do it. In the season 3 premiere

, Audrey experiences a flashback in which she learns that Lucy had worked with The Colorado Kid and that his first name is James. Audrey matches the name with the facial composite and a police search reveals that his full name is James Cogan. In Magic Hour, Audrey learned in Colorado that Sarah (and thus, Lucy and Audrey) is James's mother and in Thanks for the Memories Nathan explains he is James's father. Arla Cogan is his wife. Arla led James to believe that his mother had tried to kill him in 1983 and he hated her for it. His injuries were grave and survived only through the healing power of the barn. When he came out of the barn in the season 3 finale he starts to become sick. Returning to the barn he recovers. He explains that the only way to stop the Troubles is if Audrey kills someone she loves and he thinks that means him. He eventually learned that Audrey didn't try to hurt him. He disappears with the barn. In season 5 episode "Just Passing Through", it is revealed that James' grandfather, Croatoan used his vessel Dave Teagues to kill him in order to gain more power to manifest in reality and used the ability to make those who were at Haven lose time before he left Dave and returned to the void. He later reveals to Audrey that he did that in order to prevent Lucy Ripley from killing James and end the troubles and therefore undoing all of Mara's work. In Stephen King's book, ''The Colorado Kid'', there is only the slightest hint of the supernatural. It features two old newspapermen, owner Vince Teagues and editor Dave Bowie of the ''Weekly Islander'', who tell the story of an unsolved murder to a young journalist. The "constable" of Moose-Look at the time was George Wournos and there is a diner on the island called the "Grey Gull".
