About the Author

Charles Dante is a nameless faceless vessel who serves as the transcriber for the Entity—a malevolent force that transcends this world and will ultimately poison all of humanity with its disgust. The Entity has chosen this unknown scribe to spread its venom throughout the universe.
Stories of despair, violence and horror are all dutifully recorded, but the insanity and visions of the fantastic has a sinister effect on all those chosen to reveal the Entity’s thoughts.
There were others....H.P. Lovecraft and Edgar Allan Poe, just to mention a few, were well known authors who penned these visions of the grotesque that have spread the tentacles of fear across all of humanity.
Do not read the works of Charles if you prefer the mundane safe spaces of limited thoughts or prefer to be led around like mindless sheep. Just remember that the cauldron of white hot insanity will eventually explode and invade the world as you now know it—be warned!
