The Munsonville Trilogy of Books
The small town of Munsonville has served as the heart of many of my stories. A place of dark history, full of bloody secrets, and dangerous people. It is a place of monsters, both human and otherwise. While the place has appeared many times, in many ways, the heart of this cursed small town is […]
Movie Review: “Diabolic”
"Diabolic" is a horror film exploring a woman's struggle with blackouts and her search for answers through her past with the fundamentalist Church of Latter-day Saints.

Movie Review: “Killer Whale”
Horror fans are fun folks. Even while we’ll all love the full scope of the genre, most of us have things we are more drawn to than others. I like found-footage. Some folks like possession movies. Others like ghost movies. And some, well, some like movies where a sea creature devours people like it’s a […]
