between the devil and the deep blue sea - roanoke

The Roanoke Colony on Roanoke Island in Dare County in present-day North Carolina was an enterprise financed and organized by Sir Walter Raleigh. It was carried out by Ralph Lane and Richard Grenville (Raleigh's cousin) in the late 16th century to establish a permanent English settlement in the Virginia Colony. Between 1585 and 1587, several groups attempted to establish a colony, but either abandoned the settlement or died. The final group of colonists disappeared after three years elapsed without supplies from England during the Anglo-Spanish War. They are known as "The Lost Colony" and their fate is still unknown.

Stephen King's Storm of the Century has a small, storm-bound island town threatened by the demon Legion with the fate of Roanoke. In the screenplay, the demon has the islanders dream that the demon will mentally force them to mass suicide by walking into the raging sea.
