Stephen King has inked a deal to turn his novella THE COLORADO KID into an hour-long TV series, Variety reports.

HAVEN is centered around a spooky town in Maine where cursed folk live normal lives in exile. As those curses return, and FBI agent is brought in to keep the supernatural forces at a distance.

The team shepherding the project is the same group that turned King's THE DEAD ZONE into a series for USA Network. Scott Shepherd work as showrunner and executive produce with Lloyd Segan and Shawn Piller. Sam Ernst and Jim Dunn, who are writing the pilot, will also executive produce.
