About the Author:

Lydia Peever
Lydia Peever is a horror author and journalist from Ontario, Canada. She is a big fan of horror music, books and film–so anywhere there is blood, you will probably find her lurking somewhere in the corner.

Her short stories have appeared in Postscripts To Darkness, Dark Moon Digest, For When The Veil Drops and her small collection, Pray Lied Eve. The follow up to her first novel Nightface has been written.

In her spare time, she helps update the new releases section of the Horror Writers Association website, photographs zombie walks or bloody punk rock bands, and records a few podcasts.

RW-3: Three Tales of Terror


STORIES

Let's REWIND! From Season One comes a story from Nancy Rosenberg England! We also drop two fresh scary short tales from Josef Matulich.

Just for extra fun, our rewinds feature an opening that pays homage to classic shows from The Golden Age of Radio that inspired The Wicked Library.

About the Authors:


Josef Matulich is an author, costume/make-up artist, and retired mime. His work runs towards horror & comedy so black it is almost ultraviolet, because the only proper response to the world is to laugh or crawl under your covers for a bit of therapeutic whimpering. His Arcanum Faire novels, “Camp Arcanum” and “Power Tools in the Sacred Grove”, are published by Post Mortem Press. He has a horror/comedy screenplay trapped in pre-production Hell. When not occupied with all of the above, he helps run a costume/vintage store with his wife.
