Stephen Martorano

I have lived in New Jersey my entire life and maintain a part-time residence in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania. From a young age, I developed a love for scary stories and horror movies, which inspired my passion for writing dark fiction. My work explores the unsettling and the uncanny, bringing chilling tales to readers who dare to read the stories. I have always had a passion for eerie scary stories. I am a longtime fan of Vincent Price, Christopher Lee, and Peter Cushing and the their films from the 60's and 70's. Whenever possible I enjoy watching an old Hammer film and their depiction of a classic Edgar Allen Poe Story. The themes for my stories are greatly inspired by the chilling stories of Poe, and H.P. Lovecraft, and other classic scary stories. My next book will be released in a few months and will have the same dark fiction that I enjoy writing. Please visit my Instagram page and leave me a message if you like. I would love to talk to others about their passion for chilling, eerie stories. www.instagram.com/stephenjmartorano

Inheritance is a must-read! This book consists of three short stories that can stand on their own. The author masterfully wrote a fourth story that tied the first three together for an engaging conclusion. I found each story very interesting and they kept me wanting to read the next one. The ending wrapped everything up perfectly and left me haunted. Very well done, I highly recommend it.

I love to read and it's really hard for me to find a book that interests me and that I can stay with. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and finished it in a couple days. It had just enough freakiness for me. I look forward to reading more from this author!

A very interesting collection of 4 short stories that keeps you wanting to read the next one. And an ending that wraps everything up and leaves the reader haunted. Very well done. Highly recommend.
