Grady Hendrix

Grady Hendrix is the author of the novels Horrorstör, about a haunted IKEA, and My Best Friend's Exorcism, which is like Beaches meets The Exorcist, only it's set in the Eighties. He's also the author of We Sold Our Souls, The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires, and the upcoming (July 13!) Final Girl Support Group!

He's also the jerk behind the Stoker award-winning Paperbacks from Hell, a history of the 70's and 80's horror paperback boom, which contains more information about Nazi leprechauns, killer babies, and evil cats than you probably need.

Anna Sinjin

Anna Sinjin grew up binging on fantasy and horror. Movies, books, music… And when outside stimuli weren’t available, her imagination took charge and carried the torch. The result? The ability to keep herself entertained at all times. And a healthy fear of what might be lurking under her bed.

Anna lives with her husband and son in a small Nebraska town, surrounded by cows and her own overactive imagination. Her home might be a tad barren of fantasy for her imagination to play with, but when the fog rolls in and erases the outside world, there’s plenty of horror in which to indulge.
