Scott Nicholson
A bestselling Appalachian horror writer whose creeping dread sometimes arrives from the stars.
Scott Nicholson is an internationally bestselling American author of horror and supernatural thrillers, often rooted in the rural Appalachian Mountains where he lives. A Bram Stoker Award finalist and Writers of the Future winner, he is known for chillers like The Red Church and the Fear series, with hundreds of thousands of books sold.
While primarily a horror writer, Nicholson reaches squarely into science fiction with work like his alien-infection and post-apocalyptic AFTER series, where cosmic and biological menace meets small-town survival. Expect atmospheric dread, brisk pacing, and a strong sense of place. His SF-tinged and post-apocalyptic titles thread through our catalogue alongside the straight horror, and because the scare level varies widely from book to book, each page carries an age and content rating so you can judge the intensity before diving in.
