Why him?

So, you might be wondering who is that dude and what does he have to do with haunting?

With a name like that, Algernon Blackwood was born to be a horror writer, and he was -- he was considered one of Britain's finest. He was also a journalist, and since I've spent the greater part of my adult life working in the newspaper industry that holds an undeniable appeal.

My husband and I both have English degrees, so 10 years ago we decided our hauntings would take on a literary bent, and Blackwood Studios was born!
