The phone call originated from the house,
which summoned them into a trap - like
House on Haunted Hill (1999)
. The interior of the house tends to shift, like

The aim of the ghost (Ian Glen -

but the show could easily let lesser characters get killed.

which of his emotions is causing this particular Trouble?
Haven [Season 5, Episode 5]
The Old Switcheroo (1)
shown 09/Oct/14
Dave has ditched his brother Vince,
and headed off to investigate his pre-fosterage heritage in North Carolina.
Unfortunately, while discovering the meaning of “Croatoan”
(he could just have googled it, rather than fly 850 miles south) he activates an unwanted body-swap.
The bickering brothers must learn to work together again.
The cop decides to take Mara with him on a case.
Luckily, there are other body-swaps in town.
Sheriff Dwight (WWE wrestler The Edge -
Sanctuary
) and the lady coroner swap bodies,
leading to predictably gender-based jokes.
Audrey Parker (
Emily Rose
) and Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
) have some alone time.
Their encounter in Colorado has been rewritten.
Up until last week it was acknowledged that they went all the way,
confirmed when Mara stated in from of Nathan and Dwight that it was
like being violated by a baboon.
But in this episode, it was only a kiss ...
and somehow Nathan did not know about it.
Haven [Season 5, Episode 6]
The Old Switcheroo (2)
shown 16/Oct/14
Because Mara does not know that Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
) and Nathan switched bodies,
and that they are on to her deception, they try to trick her.
They want to release Duke’s reincarnation trouble.
Down in Carolina, the bickering brothers close in on their Troubled suspect.
Can they get him to cure them?
Haven [Season 5, Episode 7]
Nowhere Man
shown 23/Oct/14
Nathan takes Audrey Parker (
Emily Rose
) out on a case,
to solve the mystery of the atom-bomb shadows.
Unfortunately The Guard are on the prowl, looking for trouble.
Ever since Sheriff Dwight (WWE wrestler The Edge -
Sanctuary
) led the rebellion against the Leader
(who is nowhere to be seen, presumably helping his brother avoid gateways to the Hell dimensions)
they had no discipline.
Worse, Sheriff Dwight is nowhere to be seen either,
presumably out of town tidying up after the bad news the pathologist gave him in the previous episode.
Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
) is left with Mara, chained up in the hold of his boat.
She refuses to cooperate, which is annoying
since Duke is the only thing stopping The Guard from torturing her to death.
Nathan gets trapped in a ghost dimension with Christopher Masterson (
Scary Movie 2
).
Haven [Season 5, Episode 8]
Exposure
shown 31/Oct/14
Nathan is still MIA, trapped in a spirit realm with Christopher Masterson (
Scary Movie 2
). Audrey Parker (
Emily Rose
) does whatever it takes to find him.
This includes calling in the ghost-facer (Kris Lemche –
My Little Eye
).
Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
) still has Mara chained up in his hold.
She extorts favours from him – she will help solve the mystery, if he tells her about his mother.
Haven [Season 5, Episode 9]
Morbidity
shown 07/Nov/14
The CDC lady (
Laura Mennell
, best known as Nina from
Alphas
) is in town.
She teams up with Sheriff Dwight (WWE wrestler The Edge -
Sanctuary
), who gets a quick recap of recent events.
Luckily Dave has a plan.
They get the charisma-enhanced biologist (Jason Priestley - 90210)
to skype in an appearance and bluff her about a jellyfish sting.
Meanwhile, the lady coroner gets the town statistician
(yes, even Audrey wonders why he was never mentioned before) to help cover things up.
Mara is still trying to bond with her captor, Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
), in the hope of manipulating him.
Of course, Sheriff Dwight (WWE wrestler The Edge -
Sanctuary
) unintentionally helps her by antagonising Duke
and making it look like Mara was right all along.
Audrey Parker (
Emily Rose
) and Nathan try to solve the case of the phantom in the dancing teddy-bear suit.
When the phantom removes the costume’s head, his bullet-damaged head
(with a massive exit wound) is visible.
Not the kind of thing you want the CDC to look at unless you like being dissected.
Haven [Season 5, Episode 10]
Mortality
shown 14/Nov/14
Sheriff Dwight (WWE wrestler The Edge -
Sanctuary
) wants to stop the blight from spreading,
and the CDC from sending reinforcements in, so he puts the town in lockdown.
He also has to convince the CDC lady (
Laura Mennell
) that the Troubles are real,
and then enlist her help in curing the blight.
Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
) decides that he will have to trust Mara.
She conceals any personal motives she may have,
and plays along with helping Duke to help the town.
Haven [Season 5, Episode 11]
Reflections
shown 21/Nov/14
Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
) and Mara are on the run together, shacking up in a romantic little shack.
She may be playing him, but she is the only one he can trust.
His Troubles are bursting to get out, so she helps calm his emotional state.
In return, she maintains that the only way she can help is if he gets her a ball of aether.
Luckily, even though Duke is on the run
he can still wander in and out of the Police Station at will, completely unchallenged.
Sheriff Dwight (WWE wrestler The Edge -
Sanctuary
) keeps working with the CDC lady (
Laura Mennell
).
Haven [Season 5, Episode 12]
Chemistry
shown 28/Nov/14
After his night of passion with Mara, Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
) goes shopping for breakfast supplies.
Unfortunately, someone takes advantage of his convenient absence to abduct Mara.
Is it the same person who stole the Aether?
Will Duke and Nathan team up again against a common foe?
Sheriff Dwight (WWE wrestler The Edge -
Sanctuary
) enjoys working with the CDC lady (
Laura Mennell
), but Audrey and the newspaper editor are suspicious of her.
They start going through her stuff, and make a strange discovery.
Haven [Season 5, Episode 13]
Chosen
shown 5/Dec/14
Mara’s mother (
Laura Mennell
) seeks to reunite Audrey Parker (
Emily Rose
) and Mara.
But Audrey is dying, and Mara is still on the run.
Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
) offers to help Mara.
They both want the same – transport into the void.
But can they trust each other?
Haven [Season 5, Episode 14]
New World Order
Shown 08 Oct 15
Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
) frees himself of the burden of generations worth of Troubles.
Unfortunately this means spewing them all over an unsuspecting population.
Mara's mother (
Laura Mennell
) has no cure for the Troubles.
She has two options - kill all the Troubled people, or leave town.
The murderous entity that came through from The Other Side makes itself felt.
It induces one of the troubled persons to create an impenetrable barrier around the town.
This even blocks off the Bifrost routes to other worlds.
But when the population realise they are trapped, they panic ...
setting off their Troubles, which leads to more panic ...
The police cannot cope.
Since there are dozens on cops, it makes one wonder what the town's population is.
An average police force has one cop per thousand citizens.
It seems that Haven is completely over-policed, given its small population size,
but the cops do not have the skills to cope with lots of Troubled people.
Sheriff Dwight (WWE wrestler The Edge -
Sanctuary
) decides to put The Guard in charge instead.
Since he is leader of it as well, it is a simple transition.
Haven [Season 5, Episode 15]
Power
Shown 08 Oct 15
Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
) is earning a living working cash-in-hand as a manual labourer in a car repair shop.
The head mechanic does not trust anyone
who does not have a lengthy criminal record,
and Duke’s records (bank, criminal and otherwise) have been wiped from existence.
Worse, all traces of Haven itself have been removed.
Luckily, an attractive young woman (and potential love interest) arrives.
She is daughter of a Troubled person, and may have a power herself.
Back in Haven, Sheriff Dwight (WWE wrestler The Edge -
Sanctuary
) tries to keep everyone together.
The power has gone out, and something in the darkness kills people.
Dwight rations the batteries, and punishes thieves.
Audrey Parker (
Emily Rose
) is smart enough to use the skills of the Troubled People,
but only when it is dramatically essential at the climax of the episode.
Nathan gets sent off to get the power generator working again.
The town apparently has a population of 25,000,
which explains why they have a large police department
and other municipal facilities.
That said, there are only a few dozen people left in Dwight’s care (think
Under The Dome: Season 3
). Nathan’s team includes Audrey’s mother (
Laura Mennell
).
Haven [Season 5, Episode 16]
The Trial of Nathan Wuornos
Shown 15 Oct 15
Nathan returns from searching for the aether,
and when he is put on a spot about the fate of his companion
he cannot risk someone sending a rescue party, so he has to state that she is dead.
Unfortunately the woman’s fiance wants revenge.
Sheriff Dwight (WWE wrestler The Edge -
Sanctuary
) orders that Nathan be put on trial – Audrey Parker (
Emily Rose
) is at fault, since she suggests it as a delaying tactic.
The Newspaper editors are put in charge, since they have nothing else to do.
Predictably, it all gets out of control.
Nathan’s lifetime of selfless service to the community is ignored as
a few incidents are deliberately and selectively misinterpreted.
Dwight has to go and rescue the girl.
He takes Mara’s mother (
Laura Mennell
) along to look after any aether they discover.
Audrey has to find out who has the Shadows trouble.
She has a single clue, but she is distracted by Nathan’s situation.
Back in the real world, Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
) is talked into helping his new associate to rob a bank.
She is eager to use her superpower for personal gain,
the instant career route to being a supervillain.
However, Duke prefers to avoid police entanglements
- as well as the risk of getting Troubled blood on his skin.
Haven [Season 5, Episode 17]
Enter Sandman
Shown 22 Oct 15
Audrey Parker (
Emily Rose
) is trapped in a dream-world.
She is about to get married, and it is the happiest day of her life.
Unfortunately she has no ability to realise how many things are out of place in the dream-state.
Audrey's mother (
Laura Mennell
) volunteers to enter the dream-state to save her daughter.
Sheriff Dwight (WWE wrestler The Edge -
Sanctuary
) goes along with that despite the fact that she is his love interest -
and more importantly,
she is the only one who even has the potential to cure the Troubles!
Back in reality, Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
) has been abandoned.
Luckily he meets the ghost-facer, Kris Lemeche (
My Little Eye
) who previously visited Haven TWICE.
Unfortunately the ghost-facer does not remember either Duke or Haven.
When he watches his own video footage of the previous episodes, all he sees is static.
Can Duke convince him to investigate the mystery of Haven?
Haven [Season 5, Episode 18]
Wild Card
Shown 29 Oct 15
Audrey Parker (
Emily Rose
) and her mother (
Laura Mennell
) go looking for the Aether.
If they harvest it, they can cure the Troubles.
However, someone is using a tarot-card related Trouble to curse them.
Can Nathan and Sheriff Dwight (WWE wrestler The Edge -
Sanctuary
) save their girls in time?
The serial killer is out to stop our heroes.
All they know about him is his name (Croatoan)
and his ability (to wipe sections of peoples’ memories).
Vince and Dave and the Coroner have all got missing time,
so they must have come into contact with him recently.
Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
) and Kris Lemche (
My Little Eye
) go looking for a faith healer to suck the aether out of him.
Is it the old man who looks like
Stephen King
? After all, he had to do a cameo in this show sooner of later.
Haven [Season 5, Episode 19]
Perditus
Shown 05 Nov 15
Audrey’s mother (
Laura Mennell
) is dead. But in Haven, there is always someone with a Trouble that can
do something useful like raise the dead!
After all, if she remembers how she died then she can identify Croatoan.
It turns out there is a side-effect to the Trouble.
When the dead person remembers how they died,
they turn into a bloodthirsty zombie.
Vince and Dave have a detector that will help them locate the bag Croatoan stole.
If they find out where the bag is hidden, they can find the killer's identity.
Back in reality, Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
) gets exposition and a dream sequence.
He must return to Haven, to help in the climactic final battle.
Haven [Season 5, Episode 20]
Just Passing Through
Shown 12 Nov 15
The old man with the time-travel trouble has survived the murderous problems.
Nathan and Vince go back to the 1980s,
to the day that the Colorado Kid was killed.
As always with Time Travel, they must avoid changing anything.
Haven being what it is, they would only make things worse.
Nathan must convince his father and Audrey Parker (
Emily Rose
) - well, her previous incarnation - to help.
Vince must keep Dave out of trouble.
Back in the real world, Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
) is snatched by some MIBs.
They do not arrest him or charge him with anything, so they are obviously not cops.
However, Duke does not want to stay around long enough
to find out what they want with him.
This episode was directed by Colin Ferguson (
Eureka
). And from the previews we discover that William is due back next episode.
Haven [Season 5, Episode 21]
Close to Home
Shown 19 Nov 15
Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
) returns, with the space-shifting girl. Audrey Parker (
Emily Rose
) tries to talk the girl into helping.
However, since she is a career criminal she is basically a wannabe supervillain.
Worse, there is another supervillain girl in town.
The one with the uncontrollable exploding powers is out to get revenge on Duke.
She blames him because he could not control the vast number of Troubles
that were forced into him without his consent.
Nathan travels alone into the void. He encounters the Season 4 villain, William (Colin Ferguson -
Eureka
). The unlikely allies must team up to find the controller of the old barn.
Haven [Season 5, Episode 22]
A Matter of Time
Shown 26 Nov 15
Nathan is trapped alone in the void with William (Colin Ferguson -
Eureka
). Will Nathan try to win William's trust by being honest with him,
or will he just continue telling a succession of blatant lies?
Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
) and Audrey Parker (
Emily Rose
) try to persuade the space-shifting girl to bring Nathan back.
However, she has gotten herself into a position that puts her beyond help.
She is a classic narcissist and blames Duke for everything,
and he is distinctly uncomfortable with what he has to do next.
Haven [Season 5, Episode 23]
Blind Spot
Shown 03 Dec 15
Croatoan is after Audrey Parker (
Emily Rose
), so the Guard fortify the Police Station.
Every room is fitted with CCTV cameras,
and one of the staff gets the Haunted house trouble
so she possesses the building and controls every camera in it.
The result is that the episode is shot Found Footage style in Real Time.
Duke Crocker (Eric Balfour -
TCM remake
) and Nathan bond over some childhood memories.
Because character-building strays from the terrible cliche that
everything must further the plot,
this kind of emotional scene is usually a build-up
to someone being made the centre of the plot.
Croatoan finally makes his appearance.
To avoid spoilers, one can only point out that
the opening credits at the start of the episode
list the Special Guest Star as ... William Shatner (
Star Trek
). However, this is not the biggest twist of the episode.
Haven [Season 5, Episode 24]
The Widening Gyre

Croatoan (William Shatner -

Haven [Season 5, Episode 25]
Now
Shown 17 Dec 15
Sheriff Dwight (WWE wrestler The Edge -
Sanctuary
) does Croatoan's bidding.
The good news is, Dwight is a bullet-magnet so even if you do not aim at him,
your shot will be instantly re-directed towards his heart.
The bad news is that Croatoan regards this Trouble as a superpower.
After all, if you protect the heart with Kevlar
then the Troubled person is basically invulnerable.
This would also work for Vampires, so
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
is lucky that the vamps did not bother with chest armour.

Forever
Shown 24 Dec 15
In an impressive sequence that ties up a few loose ends,
we get to see what happened to the recurring characters who lived outside the town.
