My personal Substack

I'm Alder Brandon, a horror writer with a special interest in existential dread, cosmic fear, and fun silly slashers (especially with killer clowns). I'm the author of The Razor Darkness of a Starless Night

Lyrical fiction, poetry & quiet after-dark recordings.

I write stories that blend dark fantasy, horror, and sword-and-sorcery.

Where Fiction Lives!

I love writing pulp-fiction style horror (the 1920-30s style, not Mr. Tarantino’s), and enjoy banter about books, film, and music.
