Overview[]
Jeb Hawkes was the identity assumed by the adult humanoid version of the Leviathan cult leader. His true form was that of an indescribable monstrous thing, but very few saw Jeb in this form and lived to tell about it. According to the Leviathan prophecy, Jeb was fated to take Carolyn Stoddard as his bride before assuming his true destiny. Despite his vast power, there was only one thing that Jeb Hawkes was afraid of - werewolves. In the end however, it was one of his own followers, Sky Rumson, who brought his tyranny to an end when he pushed him off the edge of Widows' Hill in 1970.
