J.D. Toepfer

J.D. Toepfer writes dark, paranormal thrillers where faith collides with horror and no soul is truly safe.

Born and raised on Long Island, he now calls Northern Virginia home. By day he works in risk management, helping others avoid disaster. At night he embraces the darkness, plunging his characters into unspeakable danger with only their courage, faith, and fractured families to carry them through.

His writing journey began on the outskirts of Culpeper, Virginia, where he stumbled across a real highway once nicknamed “The Devil’s Highway.” That discovery, combined with his love for history and exploration, inspired Route 666, the first novel in his gripping Highway to Hell series.

When readers open one of his books, they can expect relentless suspense, supernatural dread, and characters forced to confront the darkest powers walking the earth.
