William Louis ("Bill") McDonald, the two "StarChild" Skulls and Lloyd Pye

Client: The late Lloyd Pye, of Houma, Louisiana and Destin, Florida. He was author of six nonfiction books on alternative history, the paranormal, the "StarChild" skull, and most notably, "Everything You Know is Wrong – Book One: Human Evolution" and the "The Starchild Skull: Genetic Enigma or Human-Alien Hybrid?"

Location: Monarch Beach, California.

Assignment: Forensic reconstruction of two living faces from multiple angles utilizing cranial-facial measurements as compared to standard forensic measurements and tables.

Significance: On the weekend of my birthday in April of 1999, Lloyd Pye came to visit with the two famous "StarChild" skulls for the purposes of me making five or six forensic reconstruction cranial-facial sketch renders over the course of that weekend.

Lloyd Anthony Pye Jr. (September 7, 1946 – December 9, 2013) was an American author and paranormal researcher best known for his promotion of the "Starchild" skull. He claimed it was the relic of a human-alien hybrid, although genetic testing showed it to be from a human male. He also promoted the ideas that cryptozoological creatures such as Bigfoot are real and that aliens intervened in human development.

My wife of three years at that point, Lori, suddenly took ill to our bed where she endured fifty-two hours of come & go cluster migraines, which were as brutal as any she had ever experienced, after handling the two skulls correctly and with the appropriate gloves and gown. Her menstrual flow manifested eruptively in what should have been the time for her normal ovulation and New York Times Bestselling Author and Film Producer Whitley Strieber later informed us that he had become just as violently ill with the same migraine and eruptive vomiting that Lori had experienced, also for three days.
