About the author

Horror with a pulse—and a conscience.

Brandon Haskin is a Virginia writer of psychological horror and dark fiction. His stories live where emotional realism meets quiet dread: in haunted homes, compromised cities, broken families, and the memories people would rather leave buried.

He is the author of Memories Tide: A Lullaby for the Forgotten and Echo Lake. His work returns to grief, guilt, identity, fatherhood, moral ambiguity, and the things that refuse to stay buried.

Turning pain into presence.
