Henry "Hank" Carmichael is a supporting character who first appears in Chapter 1 of the Complete and Uncut Edition of The Stand by Stephen King. He is one of the witnesses at Hapscomb's Texaco outside Arnette, Texas when Charles Campion crashes his car, ending the Flight of the Campions.

Story Arc
Henry Carmichael is a middle-aged resident of Arnette, Texas, and one of the regulars at Hapscomb's Texaco. Bill Hapscomb knows he is taking Cokes out without paying for them, but Hank still feels like he can side against Hank in arguments with Vic Palfrey. Hank works at the town's failing calculator factory alongside Stu Redman.

Along with Bill Hapscomb and the other regulars - Stu, Vic, Norm Bruett and Tommy Wannamaker - Hank is a witness when Charles Campion crashes into Hap's fuel pumps. When they go to investigate, the smell inside of the car of sickness and Campion's dead wife and child makes Hank vomit. (Chapter 1)
