From my corner to yours

Hello and welcome to my little corner of the blogging world. My name is M.E. Hauser and I am a first-time author - I write horror/dark fiction short stories. To give you a little idea of what I write, here is the description of my first book, Once It's Over: 13 Dark Tales:


Macabre, unsettling, and at times humorous, Once It's Over: 13 Dark Tales is M.E. Hauser's foray into horror. Each story brings with it flawed yet sympathetic characters and storylines that are rarely as straightforward as they seem. 

"Reborn" - A grieving mother adopts a hyper-realistic baby doll. Her desperation leads her down a road of jealousy and infatuation. 

"Chasing the Vein" - A middle-aged veteran rockhound has been dreaming about his father's namesake agate for his entire life. Will his rabid obsession finally pay off? 

"Silence Breaks" - A young woman, deaf since birth, is given the gift of hearing. But what she hears makes silence sound better and better. 

"Belonging" - An emotionally fragile woman tries to carve out a new life for herself and her autistic daughter. Her new home, however, has other plans.

In the course of my blog writing, I'll go into more depth about my characters and stories as well as the writing process. I'll also be writing on such topics as: 

1. Horror movie reviews
2. The supernatural
3. The occult throughout history
4. Haunted hot spots and objects
5. Ruins that we come across (and the history behind them)
6. Common and lesser-known phobias
7. New Jersey urban legends/ghost stories
8. Funerals and burials throughout history
9. Serial killers

I hope you'll stick around to read more!
