Ditchland From Screen And Playwright Tim Mulligan Your Hometown In Now A Graphic Novel
Real-Life Disaster Inspires Best-Selling Author & Award-Winning Off-Broadway Playwright To Pen 4th Book In Horror Graphic Novel Series Chernobyl Meets The Haunting Of Hill House In This Chilling Graphic Novel
“Growing up and later living as an adult near a nuclear reactor with a highly troubled past has inspired my writings,” says Mulligan. “Plutonium for nuclear weapons was produced near where I grew up, in Richland Washington. There are so many stories of strange bouts of illness, cases of cancer, and whistleblowing. It has been dubbed the most toxic area of the Western Hemisphere, with 52 million gallons of toxic waste buried in leaky tanks. My book series stems from all of this.” In the latest edition to the World of Witchland series, in nuclear-tainted Richland, a pack of misfit kids find themselves mutating into werewolves—victims of decades of secret animal testing at the Hanford Nuclear Reactor—and it's up to Ali and friends to uncover the truth before their transformations make them the next predators in a cursed town’s history. Though he is a lawyer and Human Resources executive by trade, Mulligan is passionate about his creative endeavors, which includes having published four critically-acclaimed novels, written three plays (two award-winners were performed Off-Broadway), and is the author of two best-selling cookbooks and a best-selling business book. Horror imbues the pages of the graphic novel, looming over the narrative like a nuclear plant tower. Aided by the beautiful – and terrifying –depictions of the supernatural calamity, readers will no doubt be spooked – and entertained.
