Brian C. Sloan

I've written since an early age, and over the years my work has consisted of fantasy, poetry, and my current primary focus which is short horror. I've been a huge fan of horror all my life which includes video games, movies, and books. At a young age, I quickly gravitated to books like Goosebumps and Scary Stories To Tell in the Dark. I was introduced to movies like Dracula and thus began my love of horror movies and monsters. This love carried into my first horror game Resident Evil, but a major influence had yet to come. The first time I played Silent Hill in my teens, it totally changed my idea of terror by introducing me to psychological horror. The unexplained dread and fear of the unknown was forever burned into me from that moment. My two favorite horror movies to date are "The Thing" and "The Mist."

When it came to writing short horror, I was actually inspired by listening to YouTube story narrators such as Mr. Nightmare, Southern Cannibal, and BeBusta.
