Christa Carmen lives in Rhode Island, and most of her writing inspiration comes from gazing upon the ghosts of the past and into the dark corners of nature. Her new Gothic suspense novel, Beneath the Poet’s House, was released on December 10, 2024, and she is also the author of The Daughters of Block Island, a winner of the Bram Stoker Award and a Shirley Jackson Award nominee; the Indie Horror Book Award-winning Something Borrowed, Something Blood-Soaked; and the Bram Stoker Award-nominated “Through the Looking Glass and Straight into Hell” (Orphans of Bliss, Wicked Run Press). She has a BA from the University of Pennsylvania, an MA from Boston College, and an MFA from the University of Southern Maine. When she’s not writing, she keeps chickens; uses a Ouija board to ghost-hug her dear, departed beagle; and sets out on adventures with her husband, daughter, and bloodhound–golden retriever mix.
