Stephen Hatlaban writes dark fantasy and supernatural horror fiction rooted in folklore, cryptids, and psychological suspense. His stories explore the thin places—where myth bleeds into reality, and monsters wear familiar faces. He is the author of The Mothman Reborn, a chilling reimagining of the classic cryptid legend, and How to Make a Monster: The Slenderfoot Story, a dark genetic horror that weaves Cold War experimentation with creature mythology. Stephen’s work appeals to fans of urban legends, cryptids, and the kind of horror that lingers long after the last page. If you enjoy tales with government secrets, doomed experiments, and entities that watch from the dark, his books belong on your shelf. When he's not writing, Stephen studies Appalachian folklore, vintage horror art, and strange history. Follow him for more dark fantasy and supernatural horror that blends the ancient with the uncanny.
