About J.G. Faherty

JG attributes a lot of his interest in the macabre from his growing up in the haunted Hudson Valley of New York. Here, stories of haunted houses, UFOs, and creatures lurking in the woods run rampant. He has been a fan of science fiction and horror since he was first able to change the channel. One of his earliest memories is seeing “Night of the Living Dead” and “Planet of the Apes” at the drive-in as a double feature with his parents. Addicted to things like “Star Trek”, “Godzilla”, and classic sci-fi movies like “Them!”, being introduced to horror on the big screen converted him right away. As a result, science fiction took a backseat to the thrills offered up by vampires, zombies, werewolves, ghosts, and monsters. Rising to prominence with the Publication Order of Anthologies series, J.G. Faherty has since expanded their repertoire to include numerous successful works across various genres. Their writing style, characterized by compelling narratives and memorable characters, has earned them a dedicated global readership with millions of fans worldwide.
