Dan Shrader is a horror author from French Lick, Indiana. He's the author of Cabin Black, Craven's Freaks, Full Nasty, The Worm Tongue Gospels, and numerous other works of transgressive fiction. Blending psychological terror, splatterpunk, and extreme horror, his stories explore obsession, grief, madness, and addiction. His interconnected Towers Valley universe continues to expand across novels and collections, earning him a growing readership and multiple horror award nominations.

When he isn't writing his next nightmare, he's probably hunting down forgotten VHS horror films or adding another bizarre title to his ever-growing collection.

Full Nasty IV by Dan    Shrader
"Firstly, Megan's introduction was amazing, and sets the scene for what's between these pages perfectly. Don't say you weren’t warned.....

Full Nasty IV by Dan    Shrader
"I don’t typically mention an intro in my reviews, lol. But Megan went hard on this one. 😂 It was like reading an absolutely unhinged mini story on its own and I’m simply obsessed. Hands down the most entertaining intro I’ve ever read.
