Originally it began as a short story by Moore, as part of H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos. The plot centres around an FBI agent who specialises in "anomaly theory," being assigned to investigate three seemingly-unrelated murder cases in Red Hook. When the investigation leads to a night club, and onto the apparent use of a drug named Aklo, the agent soon finds things are not at all as they seem.
