You're using the syntax of serialize properly.

The problem looks like it's in the JSON.load method not properly handling a 
nil value:

def load(source, proc = nil)
  if source.respond_to? :to_str
    source = source.to_str
  elsif source.respond_to? :to_io
    source = source.to_io.read
  else
    source = source.read
  end
  result = parse(source, :max_nesting => false, :allow_nan => true)
  recurse_proc(result, &proc) if proc
  result
end    

Basically it gets to the line "source = source.read" and throws up because 
source is nil and nil doesn't have a read method.
