Born in Allendale, New Jersey to Norwegian immigrant parents, Matheson was raised in Brooklyn and graduated from Brooklyn Technical High School in 1943. He then entered the military and spent World War II as an infantry soldier. In 1949 he earned his bachelor’s degree in journalism from the University of Missouri and moved to California in 1951. He married in 1952 and has four children, three of whom (Chris, Richard Christian, and Ali Matheson) are writers of fiction and screenplays.
Neville is given a choice: he can either join the vampires or be executed. He chooses to be executed, but before he dies, he tells Ruth that she is wrong. He says that the vampires are the monsters, because they have lost their humanity.
