My darker shelf has its own door.

I built Night Vendor because horror has always had its own room for me.

Long before this site, I was the person wandering through spooky conventions, stopping at author tables, buying books directly from the people who wrote them, collecting strange covers, small-press stories, dark little worlds, and anything that felt made by hand instead of pushed through a machine.

I have always loved reading. Writing took longer to believe in.

In high school, I was told I was a terrible writer. I carried that longer than I should have. Then, in college, one professor saw the opposite. They told me I had talent. Not in a loud way. Not in a dramatic way. Just enough truth to leave a door open.

Night Vendor is part of me walking through that door. My romance work has its own house. NeuroVerse has its own headquarters. This is where the darker work stands by itself: the Late Files first, the bookshop behind it, and the fiction shop only when an object earns the counter.

No borrowed monsters. No fake drops. No bargain-bin fear. Just original horror, strange files, and stories that wait until the light gets cold.

Night Vendor is House III · Shadow. The author home is House I · Story. NeuroVerse Works is House II · Becoming. The houses share an author, not an atmosphere.
