- And the Dream Lord is Ollie.
- Cliff Clavin's mom Esther is Irene Reppler.
- F.B.I. Agent Dana Lewis is the crazy religious zealot Mrs. Carmody

King first thought up this story after having actually witnessed a storm that bad while on vacation. He went to the grocery store for some more emergency supplies, and while he was standing the (very long) checkout line, he randomly pictured something like a pterodactyl flying over all the customers.
A lot of key parts were omitted from the original script:
- The failed experiment that summoned the mist.
- Brent's rationalization on why he doesn't believe David, the mechanics or Ollie
- Carmodie's followers are already in the process of sacrificing people
