    I’m pretty sure Randall Flagg is supposed to be the son of Satan.

    There is a line where the wise old woman played by Whoopi Goldberg explains how Fran was tempted by him because “he is his father’s son.”

    I can’t remember any other explanation in the book or the dark tower series for who he is.

      I always assumed Flagg was the son of the Crimson King. Though the argument could be made that the Crimson King is a metaphor for Satan.
