Alistair Cross

Alistair Cross was born in a small town in the western United States. He grew up on horror novels and scary movies, and by the age of 8, began writing his own stories. He was first published in 2012 by Damnation Books, LLC. In 2014, he and acclaimed horror novelist, Tamara Thorne, released the first of several subsequent installments in The Ghosts of Ravencrest, a serialized Gothic Horror novel. Since then, they have penned The Cliffhouse Haunting, and Grandma's Rack together.

Mr. Cross' influences include, but are not limited to, the works of Stephen King, Dean Koontz, John Saul, Ira Levin, William Peter Blatty, and of course, Tamara Thorne. His turn-ons include horror movies, photography, offensive books, blaring music, Swiss cheese, bloodletting, leather boots, and making people feel uncomfortable.

In his spare time, he can often be found playing with fire, conquering ant colonies, flogging his friends, appearing pensive and thoughtful for no real reason, and exploring the various stages of hypnagogia on the freeway.

Mr. Cross is currently working on the next collaboration with Tamara Thorne, as well as a solo novel, which is expected to be completed in summer of 2015.
