Jack Ketchum, né en 1946, est considéré comme l'un des plus importants auteurs américains vivants. Derrière ce pseudonyme (inspiré du nom des bourreaux britanniques) se cache un écrivain qui fut le secrétaire de Henry Miller. Jack Ketchum a publié trente romans et novellas, dont quelques chefs-d'oeuvre du genre, comme Morte Saison, Une fille comme les autres ou Fils Unique. Cinq d'entre eux ont fait l'objet d'une adaptation au cinéma et sa prose est traduite dans seize langues. Il a remporté quatre fois le Bram Stoker Award, une distinction décernée par la prestigieuse Horror Writers Association, qui, en 2015, lui a décerné un Prix Spécial pour l'Ensemble de son OEuvre, consécration réservée à un petit nombre d'auteurs dont Stephen King, Peter Straub, Ann Rice et Richard Matheson.
Clive Barker is the bestselling author of twenty-two books, including the New York Times bestsellers Abarat; Abarat: Days of Magic, Nights of War; the Hellraiser and Candyman series, and The Thief of Always. He is also an acclaimed painter, film producer, and director. He lives in Southern California.
Edgar Allan Poe (1809–49) reigned unrivaled in his mastery of mystery during his lifetime and is now widely held to be a central figure of Romanticism and gothic horror in American literature. Born in Boston, he was orphaned at age three, was expelled from West Point for gambling, and later became a well-regarded literary critic and editor. The Raven, published in 1845, made Poe famous. He died in 1849 under what remain mysterious circumstances and is buried in Baltimore, Maryland.
