Richard Tabaka has been a fan of all things horror since he was a young boy. An avid reader and movie goer, Richard began reading Edgar Allan Poe and Bram Stoker at a young age and soon started on books by such authors as Lovecraft, Block, Matheson and King. He has seen nearly every Hammer Horror film ever made and is a fan of both classic and modern horror films, his favorites being Bela Lugosi's Dracula and Karloff's Frankenstein.
He began writing stories in notebooks by the time he was in the fifth grade and the thought of being an author has always been on his mind since his mother first encouraged him to read so many years ago. He resides along the banks of the Wisconsin River and can often be found wandering the wilder places of both Wisconsin and his own imagination.
