About

Born and raised in New York's haunted Hudson Valley and more recently a resident of North Carolina’s equally haunted Cape Fear region, JG Faherty is the author of 25 books, 4 collections, and more than 90 short stories, and he’s been a finalist for both the Bram Stoker Award (twice) and ITW Thriller Award. He writes adult and YA horror, science fiction, dark fantasy, and paranormal romance, and his works range from quiet, dark suspense to over-the-top comic gruesomeness. Under other names, he has also published a photojournal coffee table book and a guide to writing resumes. He is a frequent speaker on horror and writing at libraries and schools and is proud to be a relative of Mary Shelley. Some of his recent titles include THE WAKENING, RAGMAN, HOUSES OF THE UNHOLY, SINS OF THE FATHER, and THE NIGHTMARE MAN.
