The Rift

Nightstalkers: The Rift

Who are the Special Operations who take care of things that go bump in the night?

The Nightstalkers.

Ever since the first Rift opened in Area 51 in 1947, via the infamous Demon Core from the Manhattan Project, exposing the world to deadly beings of pure energy, only the Nightstalkers have stood between humanity and complete annihilation. But as the decades have gone by, whatever power controls the Rifts seems to be getting smarter, as if refining an ultimate plan…

An old ally alerts the Nightstalkers to a resurgence of Rifts in Tennessee, not far from Oak Ridge, another institution from the Manhattan Project, and near one of the team’s first major skirmishes with the seemingly inexhaustible threat. Though still licking their wounds from their latest mission, the Nightstalkers know there’s no one else remotely prepared to battle these intrusions into our world. And this time, they’re intent on closing down the Rifts once and for all. But to do so, they’ll have to finally face the truth behind the Rifts’ origins.

The Demon Core

They say that those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it.

But what if the past has already doomed us all?

Nightstalkers are the elite Special Ops unit that take care of the things that go bump in the night; and worse. They correct the mistakes of scientists. They’re also a little bit crazy and a long way outside the bell curve, and not necessarily on the good end.
