Chilling Blog Posts
As a horror writer driven by the macabre, I craft haunting, original tales inspired by the eerie and fantastical worlds of horror books and films. On my blog, you’ll find spine-chilling short stories and serialized horror narratives. I also contribute to Medium, sharing even more dark and twisted fiction for those who can’t get enough of the genre.

About Me
Mexican American writer, corporate robot by day, and storyteller by night. My writing is rooted in a lifelong fascination with all things dark, strange, and unsettling. I review horror, thriller, and dark fantasy literature, along with films that disturb, challenge, and occasionally traumatize their audiences (I promise I’m not a crazy person).
Beyond reviews, I explore creepy history, folklore, urban legends, true crime, and the ominous corners of culture and society. I also write personal essays and cultural commentary, examining everything from family traditions and identity to the European werewolf trials. Yes, that was really a thing. To stay up to date with my latest articles, check out my Medium blog here: Medium
I’m also working on my own horror novella, because apparently consuming terrifying stories isn’t enough. I am currently seeking interested ARC readers for my debut novella. Please reach out if you are interested in exchanging an honest review for a free copy of my book.
When I’m not just barely surviving corporate life, I’m usually reading something disturbing, watching another horror film, researching obscure history, or writing about whatever has captured my morbid curiosity.
