New York housewife Linda Napolitano was living a normal life up until she claimed to be abducted by aliens from her 12th-floor New York apartment in November 1989. The three-part Netflix docuseries The Manhattan Alien Abduction follows her captivating story, with Linda as its main narrator.
As unbelievable as the tale itself sounds, the production team at Story Films wanted the series to explore Linda’s experience. “The premise is less about the paranormal, and more about the belief system surrounding it,” says Dan Vernon, Series Director. “The aim is to focus on people whose lives have been changed by these events.”
