Jasper Bark

Jasper Bark finds writing author biographies and talking about himself in the third person faintly embarrassing. Telling you that he’s an award winning author of four cult novels including the highly acclaimed ‘Way of the Barefoot Zombie’, just sounds like boasting. Then he has to mention that he’s written 12 children’s books and hundreds of comics and graphic novels and he wants to just curl up. He cringes when he has to reveal that his work has been translated into nine different languages and is used in schools throughout the UK to help improve literacy, or that he was awarded the This Is Horror Award for his last anthology ‘Dead Air’. Maybe he’s too British, or maybe he just needs a good enema, but he’s glad this bio is now over.

Erin Banks

Erin Banks is a Northern German-born autistic author who began writing publicly on blogs such as CrimePiper, with a focus on true crime and criminal psychology.
Their nonfiction book Ted Bundy: Examining the Unconfirmed Survivor Stories—also translated into German—grew out of that interest.

Their debut novel, ABOUT RAGE, is a psychological horror drama centered on a female serial killer. It blends action-thriller pacing with forensic realism and emotionally charged, existential themes.
The book’s unnerving detail and psychological accuracy has led to some readers speculating that they are a serial killer who wrote it as a “duping delight diary.” (They’re not—unless the autistic meticulousness counts as a criminal offense.)
They also co-wrote

Blake Myers

Blake Myers grew up in a small town in Ohio, nestled between farms on one side and bustling suburbs on the other. Being a member of Gen-X, he spent more time outside than he did behind a screen or tucked between pages of a book. Matter of fact, he didn't become an avid reader until after university. And oddly enough, as a fan of horror, he was terrified of the dark as a child and got nightmares from the 1966 comedy film "The Ghost and Mr. Chicken" starring Don Knotts. He took up horror novels and movies as a way to "cure" himself via exposure therapy—though he didn't even know that term at the time.

After completing his bachelor’s degree in Religion and Philosophy in 2000, Blake took a different route in life and entered into education as a

A.E. Soto

If you want to know more about me, all I will disclose (for now) is that I am a 27 year old female author who lives in North Carolina. I’m married to a beautiful woman and we own a bizarre amount of animals, currently the number is sixteen, but please don’t let that scare you away! We have a farm, so it’s at least somewhat justified. My passion for extreme horror developed from my curiosities in my adolescence, I would often look up the most extreme horror films I could find with my friends and watch as many as we could stomach. Looking back on it, I think viewing those movies set a standard for me that most contemporary horror could rarely achieve. It wasn’t until I found extreme horror literature as an adult that my needs for the extreme
