Haven (fictional town)
Haven is a fictional town on the Maine coast, which is the center of events in the supernatural TV series ''Haven''. (There is however, a town in Knox county Maine called North Haven, Maine) It is not far by boat to Camden〔Haven boatmen buy fishing supplies from Camden in episode 105.〕 (placing it in either Waldo or Knox counties) and the police send forensic material to Bangor〔Nathan cites an autopsy report done in Bangor in episode 207.〕 (although, the state's only forensic lab is actually in Augusta). Images of Haven are mainly derived from the town of Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, which is one of the main locations where the series is filmed,〔Adam Jacobs. ("Movie, Miniseries Being Filmed around Town of Lunenburg". ) SouthshoreNow.ca. 20 April 2010. Retrieved 10 April 2011.〕 along with the village of Chester, Nova Scotia, which provides many of the shop fronts used in the series.
Haven is a coastal town with a long past connected to the sea, stretching back over 350 years to the time of the Pilgrims. People who were cast out of Europe "were given a second chance" in Haven.〔Comment by Shaun Piller in a (Syfy video ). Retrieved 22 August 2011.〕 "People came to this town because it had (that neutralized ) whatever curse or phenomenon that was afflicting them."〔Comment by Eric Balfour in the same (Syfy video ). Retrieved 22 August 2011.〕 The town's name is derived from the translation of a Mi'kmaq name, ''Tuwiuwok'', meaning "Haven ''for God's Orphans''".〔as explained by Nathan Wuornos in episode 101, "Welcome to Haven".〕 However, throughout the town's past there have been outbreaks of strange events that the locals refer to as The Troubles, when those curses and other strange phenomena are not held under control.
The town folk are a tightly knit group in the sense that they don't warm to strangers easily and keep their business to themselves, including information about The Troubles. However, the community is divided. On one side there are those people with supernatural afflictions, the Troubled, and those who accept them. On the other are those who see the Troubled as accursed.
==Locations in Haven==
According to the map of Haven seen in episode 113, "Spirals", the town is on a neck of land reaching east from the Maine coast. The southern side is the port, which looks uncannily like the port of Lunenburg. On the southern side of Haven Harbor is Tuwiuwok Bluff, from where Jonas Lester was blown by unnatural winds in the series premiere. To the north are several islands including King's, Shepherd's and Segan's Islands.〔Presumably the names of these islands are derived from Stephen King and two of the producers of the series, Scott Shepherd and Lloyd Segan.〕 To the east the neck divides in two with a smaller part to the north-east and a larger part to the south-east. The larger part is where Haven Beach is found.
