Marcus Kliewer is a writer and stop-motion animator. His debut novel We Used to Live Here began life as a serialized short story on Reddit, where it won the Scariest Story of 2021 award on the NoSleep forum (eighteen million members). Film rights were snapped up by Netflix, and it acquired by Simon & Schuster for publication even before it had been extended into a full-length novel. He lives in Vancouver, Canada.

Quotes by Marcus Kliewer  (?)

“Even when the event was completely out of her control, even when the other party was blatantly overstepping her bounds, she always found a way to blame herself. Always felt this nagging sense of guilt for everything, as if her very existence was a violation of some stone-etched decree.”
Marcus Kliewer, We Used to Live Here

“When things felt right, it only meant there was so much more that could go wrong.”
Marcus Kliewer, We Used to Live Here

“Yet, like all totally not haunted houses in the middle of nowhere, it was listed at a killer deal.”
Marcus Kliewer, We Used to Live Here
