Zachary Maughan writes what keeps him up at night.
He is an American indie author and a lifelong lover of eerie tales, late-night storms, and stories that blur the line between dream and reality. Zachary's debut horror novel She Who Walks in Sleep, was born from a nightmare that refused to fade. When a scary story told to his family during a blackout struck a nerve, they encouraged him to turn it into something more, and the Bender was born.
Zachary lives in Pennsylvania with his wife and two daughters, who all helped inspire and shape the world of his books. When he is not writing unsettling stories, he enjoys drawing, listening to music, and spending time with his family (who now double as his favorite beta readers and biggest supporters).
She Who Walks in Sleep is the first installment in The Bender Saga, a psychological horror series that explores generational fear, fractured reality, and the monsters we feed with our thoughts.
He believes the best horror doesn't just scare you... It follows you.
