Christopher Winterberg

Christopher Winterberg writes horror, weird fiction, and dark short stories about ordinary people discovering that ordinary places are usually lying.

His work includes Twisted Sanity: Stories Beyond Reality, The Things That Knock, and The Things That Answer. His stories tend to begin in familiar places: quiet houses, empty rooms, late-night stations, neighborhood streets, closed laundromats, old memories, and other places that should probably mind their own business.

They rarely do.

Winterberg’s fiction blends psychological unease, supernatural weirdness, dark humor, and the occasional bad decision made by someone who really should know better. He is interested in the moment when reality cracks just enough for something unpleasant to look back.

When he is not writing, he is probably thinking about writing, avoiding writing, questioning writing, or tapping at his phone and creating endless writing notes.

He lives online ate his site where readers can find book news, free stories, blog posts, and other questionable decisions.
