A.J. Spencer is a writer and independent filmmaker from Kentucky. Growing up he was fascinated with the horror genre and constantly rented the Nightmare on Elm Street series on VHS. To learn the craft of proper storytelling he got his hands on every Comic book and anything written by R.L. Stine and Christopher Pike before quickly graduating to the works of Clive Barker and Edgar Allen Poe.
He started writing his own short stories after encouragement from his wife, who he currently resides with along with their daughter, and gained positive response.
His story, The Dead Man’s Mask, made it to the final round of a horror story contest ran by the TNT network and gained him a solid readership. Shortly afterwards his stories were being published in local magazines, where his short story, Crash, received honorary mention. He also got the attention of a dark art magazine called Grim in the U.K., which continues to publish his short and flash fiction pieces to this day.
