  Al-Hazard is a young independent horror author. His love story with the genre goes back to his days lurking the basement of the only bookshop in town providing books in his native language. While there, he came across the likes of Algernon Blackwood, Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer or Carlos Ruiz Zafón. This inspired him to get involved with the horror fiction community. To the date, this has successfully landed his work in anthologies such as Horror d’oeuvres (volumes II and III), the Monstronomicon and Scary Snippet’s Christmas special.

  Alanna Robertson-Webb: My name is Alanna Robertson-Webb, a horror-specializing author who is terrified of sharks and finds fun in editing character backstories for her Dungeons and Dragons group. I live with a fiancee and two cats, all of whom like to take over my favorite cozy blanket when they think they can get away with it. I am currently a wound vac specialist by day, and an editor and author by candlelight. One of the anthologies I am featured in, Monsters by Black Hare Press, was nominated for a 2019 Bram Stoker award. You can check out my work here, much of which has hit #1 spots on Amazon in various categories throughout 2019.
