Did you type C-g when you were asked whether you wanted the local
variables evaluated?
Here's a minimal test case demonstrating the problem:
(let ((inhibit-quit t))
(y-or-n-p "Foo? "))
Press C-g when you see the prompt in the minibuffer. Your Emacs is then
irretrievably lost (although you can auto-save).
