Kid Michael should have this abilities:
Stealth Mastery (In opening scene of H1 1978, when we see events on behalf of Michael, Danny can be seen walking close to Michael but does not notice him)
2:33
Minor Retrocognition (Page 3 in site, chapter 3 in novel)
"It had begun with the strange pictures in his head at night, pictures of people he had never seen—oh, maybe in comic books or on television, but never in real life. People in strange costumes, animal skins, armor, leather, drinking and dancing wildly around a fire. One couple in particular. They looked like Judy and Danny, madly in love with each other, dancing in a circle around the huge bonfire, while he, Michael, stood in the crowd hating them, burning up with jealousy."
Dreams that Michael sees is a projection to events of past that are described in prologue of novel (page 1 in site). Dancing couple is Danny (Judy boyfriend) and Judy (Michael sister)=Cullain and Deirdre, and Michael, who is standing and looking at them is Enda
"And now it was Samhain, and Enda, humiliated beyond reason, stood on the perimeter of the celebrants dancing and chanting around the bonfire. In his left hand he held a fat wineskin, from which he drank often. In his right he held a footlong butcher blade which he used to cut the throats of pigs and chickens.
His eyes were fixed bitterly on the figures of Deirdre and Cullain, whirling exuberantly around the fire, to the immense approval of the tribe. For their betrothal had been announced, to the joy and relief of all.
Enda's legs shook and his body trembled in the cold night, though the heat of the fire was intense."
Social Influencing (He charmed people with his appearance)
(Page 4 in site, chapter 4 in novel)
"To look at him, during the hearings before the magistrate, was to see a handsome, almost pretty, rosy-checked little lad in a neat tweed suit, a tie, and highly polished shoes. His eyes were warm, his smile genuine, and when he spoke it was with artless sincerity. In fact, more than one newspaper report described him as "charming."
"Like everyone else, Loomis had been deeply touched by the angelic appearance and manner of the little boy"
"What doubly disturbed Loomis was that subtly but definitely, the boy was capturing the leadership of the juvenile ward, because no one dared to challenge him. Everyone, staff and inmates alike, indulged him, and so he pretty much got his way."
Fear Inducement (Page 4 in site, chapter 4 in novel)
Loomis and Michael eye contact
"as the boy was reciting the events of the evening of October 31, 1963, his eyes had happened to lock with Loomis's. The man felt a chilly forboding that almost curdled his blood . . ."
Dr. Loomis reports to the judge about Michael in Smith's Grove
"Well, first of all, you have to understand that as Michael is by far—maybe eight or nine years—the youngest patient in the ward, he would ordinarily be the subject of a great deal of bullying, yes?"
"I should imagine so."
"Well, there hasn't been any attempt whatsoever. Not so much as a pinch."
The magistrate stroked his cheek. "And what do you make of that?"
"The same thing you do, I'm sure. They're afraid of him. I have seen him turn the hardest delinquent in the ward to stone with a stare."
"Nothing quite as tangible. But the other boys in my charge have become . . . well, rather restless since Michael's arrival. Like a herd of cattle that instinctively feels the presence of wolves out there in the darkness. They always seem to be on the verge of bolting. Stampeding."
Curse Manipulation (Page 4 in site, chapter 4 in novel)
Dr. Loomis reports to the judge about Michael in Smith's Grove
"Then there was the matter of Gilden, the trustee. Gilden is known around the ward for his pranks. The children love him; he's the only breath of fresh air in the place. One day, about a month after Michael's arrival, old Gilden played one of his harmless practical jokes on the boy—one I've seen countless times."
"What was that?"
"Oh, he loosened the cap on the salt shaker, so that when Michael salted his dinner, the contents of the shaker fell into his food. As usual, it got a big laugh. It has become practically an initiation ceremony for the youngsters at the hospital.''
"And . . ."
"Michael didn't think it was funny."
"What did he do?"
"Nothing, at the time. But that night, Gilden came down with a case of cramps so severe he had to have his stomach pumped. It was analyzed as food poisoning."
"But you think . . . ?"
"Yes, though I don't know how the boy might have gotten to the kitchen or what he could have used. The juvenile ward is separated from the kitchen by a series of guarded or locked passages."
"In the following months there were more "occurrences," and in Loomis's mind there was no doubt whom to ascribe them to. Every time Michael was slighted, or fancied he was, by a staff member or another inmate, some awful vengeance was visited upon the offending person. It might be a day, a week, a month later, but Michael got even.
The problem for Loomis was that no one ever observed the boy doing it directly. One day, as the boys were watching television in the lounge, a fifteen-year-old got up and turned the sound lower. Michael rose and turned it up again. The other boy turned it lower again. Michael accepted the situation with a resigned shrug.
That evening, as the older boy was showering, the water turned scalding. The lad was harmed only enough to discomfort him for a week, but it could have been serious, and everyone knew who was behind it. Yet apparently Michael had not left his room.
There were other incidents. A nurse who quarreled with Michael fell down the stairs two days later, fracturing her pelvis. A boy who borrowed a game from Michael and forgot to return it suffered a vicious rash that hospitalized him for a month."
Death Manipulation and Technology Manipulation
(Page 5 in site, chapter 4 in novel)
"The next game was ducking for apples. A huge vat had been borrowed from the kitchen, filled with water, and a dozen apples floated in it. The idea was for the children to pick an apple out of the water using just their teeth.
After eight or nine children had gone, it was Sophie's turn. Michael stood third or fourth in line behind her. She leaned over the lip of the vat, struggling to keep her hands behind her back to resist the temptation to grab the apple.
The lights went out.
It was not uncommon for the lights to fail at Smith's Grove, especially on windy nights, when trees fell on power lines in rural areas. But it was not a windy night.
Loomis had been prepared for anything but this. He leapt from his chair and ran in the pitch darkness for the spot where he thought the vat was. He bowled over several shrieking children and groped the last few steps until he collided with the platform on which the vat stood. At that moment the hospital's own emergency generators, which tripped on automatically when the main utility system failed, brought light back into the auditorium.
Sophie lay face down beside the vat, drenched from the waist up. Loomis searched the room for Michael. He stood under a basketball backboard, at least ten steps away, smiling. Loomis looked at the boy's costume and hands: They were completely dry.
With a nurse Loomis applied artificial respiration, and after a moment the girl brought up a large quantity of water, sputtering and gasping."
