Casey Chaplin
I have always had a fascination for the macabre and the unexplained, which led me to become a horror author. My imagination thrives on the dark and sinister, weaving tales of suspense and terror that leave my readers on the edge of their seats. I am constantly exploring the depths of human fear, drawing inspiration from the things that go bump in the night. With every story I write, I aim to send shivers down the spines of my audience and make their hearts race with anticipation. Crafting intricate plot twists and developing complex characters, I take pleasure in creating a chilling atmosphere that lingers long after the last page is turned. Writing horror allows me to delve into the darkest corners of the human psyche, exposing the primal fears that reside within us all. My goal as a horror author is to leave a lasting impression, instilling a sense of unease and haunting imagery that will haunt my readers' nightmares.

Necromancy... And Other Mystical Things
Chip was just an ordinary fella. In fact, there wasn’t anything special about him at all, or so he thought. It’s funny how life can change seemingly over lunch, and for Chip, when the smell of death began to emanate from his body, his life changed completely. After some convincing by his roommate, Mort, Chip reluctantly accepted that maybe, just maybe, he happened to be a necromancer – one who can raise and control the dead - which was a handy skill to have after his girlfriend was kidnapped by Mephisto, a former general of Hell’s army. The fact that the two events occurred on the same day must have been more than a coincidence. Chip teams up with his roommate, who also happens to be a voodoo witch doctor, and a djinn who runs a local shop to stop the demon and save Chip’s girl… who turns out to be the personification of Mother Earth. Suffice it to say, it was a complicated day.

Lizzy
In a story that draws influences from legends of horror like Clive Barker or Stephen King comes Lizzy...Lizzy was just a young girl with a terrible mind. She lived in a relatively comforting and loving home, with caring parents, and had a strong relationship with her best friend, Malcolm. However, despite the stability in her life, she couldn't help but feel as though she was an outsider - somebody who never really fit in with society. She wasn't one to play with dolls, or have tea parties; she was far too sophisticated for that. She was too curious.
