In 2001, Whitley Strieber began to hear of a large number of mutilation murders taking place in northern New Jersey—in fact, within about forty miles of his old cabin. These were absolutely terrifying stories, to say the least. At first, he thought they must be a hoax, but subsequently was forced to place them in the realm of the unknown.
These true stories involved the remains of street people being found mutilated like cattle, on the roofs of buildings . Worse, they had been drowned by being taken to such a depth in the ocean that their lungs showed pressure damage. So these street people were being taken, having their genitals and tongues and eyes and lips cut off, then being plunged into the sea a hundred miles away and drowned, then dropped back on the roofs of buildings.
At first, it appeared that he had a direct line to the coroner involved. Then that collapsed, and he was left unsure about what had happened. He could not believe that the murders were done by some sort of serial killer, because how could a serial killer mutilate people, then drown them by taking them down in the ocean, then bring them back and put them on roofs? It struck him as impossible.
Whitley Strieber has now teamed up with author Craig Spector to make a graphic novel called The Nye Incidents inspired by those true events. Following is a description of The Nye Incidents:
"Lynn Devlin is a medical examiner who thinks she has seen everything Nye County has to throw at her. She copes with methodical, rational logic. But when a grotesque murder of a supposed alien abductee occurs that cannot be solved with her scalpel and microscope, Lynn finds her detachment is shattered, and her dreams haunted by large, dark, oval-shaped eyes. Now, only one thing is certain: There's a killer loose in the alien abductee community... human or otherwise!"
Since the novel is written in comic book form, Whitley Strieber recommends purchasing it at your local comic book store, although the book is also available at Amazon.com.
