Carmody

Carmody is mentioned a lot by David even before he is trapped in the store. Apparently she has a pied piper effect on people, namely Stephanie, David's wife. She owns an antiquary and sells stuffed animals and stuff from her father. Carmody is first seen when David, along with Billy and Brent drive to the store to gather supplies after the storm. She is next put into picture, getting people's attention as the group in the loading bay try and inform everyone about Norm's disappearance, stating it as factual but also as a sign of God finally raining hellfire upon the Earth for all the sin humanity has. People pay no attention to her until the end of the first night, in which people start believing her to be someone of predictions. She eventually begins a congregation, beginning with a woman who argues with David's group going to the store but is silenced quickly by David. After the group return from the store, the congregation has gotten even bigger, with people believing that Carmody must be right as she foresaw the future in which Buddy was killed after going into the mist. Eventually Carmody tries to stop David from leaving the store believing that it's "against the will of God" and tries to have her congregation sacrifice Billy to stop the mist. As her group is about to grab Billy, Ollie shoots her once in the stomach which silences the entire store and stops the congregation from proceeding. She eventually bleeds out from the wound after muttering the words "you'll die out there".
