Writer Biography - Brian Edward Daniel

Hello, my name is Brian Daniel. I'm 48 years old, and I live in the small town of Rosalie AL. I'm the father of three teenagers, two girls, and one boy. when I was a kid, I had seizures and was in and out of the hospital on a regular basis. I was scared a lot as a kid growing up by my family and friends but by my father mainly. My father used to go outside my bedroom window at night and scratch on the window saying, Brian, Brian, open the window Brian which he got from the scene where Danny Glick comes back as a vampire and scratches on Mark Petrie's window saying, "Mark, Mark, open the window, Mark." from Stephen Kings, "Salem's Lot." My father would also go outside and howl at the full moon because he knew I was terrified of the full moon (werewolves). However, my father is the one who broke my fear of the full moon by taking me out into the woods on a full moon night when I was about 12- years old. Ever since then, I grew a love and fascination for horror.
