I also think that the Tremond's were very much related to Harold.
Laura's diary says that she delivered to the boy & grandmother (he used
to pull coins out from behind Laura's ear) so Donna's encounter wasn't 
isolated.  It does seem strange, however, that Laura was delivering food
that spirits had *ordered* from the Double-R.

While we're on the subject of unanswered questions, here are some
others  (some of you are going to call this "inane" so just
press "n" -- you know who you are):

1.  What did Maddy see in her dream that was "so weird" and what was
that pattern in the rug the next day?  My guess is that part of her weird dream
might have been the same as Laura's since they once were practically able to 
share thoughts.  Possibly, her dream also included something about that
rug pattern that included Maddy seeing her own death in that room-- i.e.
the pattern was her own blood stain.

2.  What the heck does the Palmer ceiling fan signify?  There were a
couple different shots of it shown repeatedly. Was it nothing special or
did have something to do with a golden circle? 

3.  When Maddy died, why did Bobby have that goofy look on his face?
Did he see the Giant?  Is he "gifted?" (inherited it from dad?) or was
he just wondering why Donna was crying? 

4.  Why did the OAM say that BOB had been near Ben/Jerry?  Because they
had physically been close to Leland or because BOB had once possessed either or
both of them?  (see also OAM goes nuts when Ben comes stomping down the
hall.)  Did BOB _do_ anything while possessing them?  Did it have
something to do with what happened at Mr. Biloges (sp?) barn?

5.  Why did Coop remind Gordon of a Chihuahua?  My only guess is very
lame.  I suppose that he meant Coop looked happy to see him like dogs are 
happy to see their masters even if they've only been away for a short time, 
or maybe it had something to do with that quote about a bald mouse (i.e. 
Chihuahuas almost look hairless right?)  I put this one in the "fish in 
the percolator" file.

6.  This one is really just an observation:  After Maddy dies, Coop's face
is shown and then faded to the red curtains of the Roadhouse.  In the 
credits, a mixed shot of Dale and the red curtains is shown-- sort of
a foreshadowing or coincidence?
