Yes, it's sad to see what happens to your eggplants @englishtchrivy, I can not exactly say the reason, but here are a few possible reasons: a spider mite; aphid; lack of sunlight; excessive watering or stagnant water at the roots; lack of potassium in the soil. Perhaps if you check all the reasons, you will be able to save the plants. Do not despair and good luck to you :)
