About The Author



Kate Grenenger



I was born to be a horror writer/ producer.

​

Since before I could talk I was an imaginative being. I dreamed of a life that was boundless and oddly strange. Though I had nowhere or no idea where to begin, so I started writing stories.


I began to write the world in a way that was somewhat abnormal; people had button eyes, monsters hid inside closets, hands roamed in the walls, trees engulfed people, spirits tormented the living etc.

​

By the time I was six years old I realised that other children did not see the world the way I did. I was different, needless to say any more. I took it as a compliment. People did not phase me, the world did. Growing up with a stutter allowed me to hide within my own mind most of the time, I never spoke much - In fact I’d be lying if I said I spoke a lot now. The idea of living a life without spoken words is my ultimate dream. Creative writing, dark theatre and musical production have given me an escape method.


I imagine a life where the darkness is beautiful and monsters are misunderstood.
