'Nightflyers' creator Jeff Buhler says there's more mystery to unravel, finale is 'just the beginning of where we would go'

In the first 5 minutes of the pilot, Buhler eliminated the big hoopla about who's dying and what turns out to be the horror element by revealing some important character deaths

To say that Jeff Buhler's SyFy series-adaptation of 'Nightflyers' diverges from the original book by George R R Martin would be a gross understatement, because the show diverges pretty significantly from the source material. But the root plot is the same, even though the subplots showcasing the progression of events seem to differ quite a bit.

Yet, this is exactly where Buhler's personal expertise comes into play because not only does he put up an equally riveting plot towards the culminating horrors of the space adventure, he also keeps viewers intrigued to the very end with a sense of mystery that most adaptations failed to execute.
