Profile Information

Something About Me and My Book:
I have been an aficionado of the horror genre most of my life. The fascination began as a child, staying up late and watching "Creature Features" late at night with my father. I grew up in one of the golden eras of horror films--Hammer Horror was in full swing and as I grew older the iconoclasts came on the scene--Carpenter, Craven and Argento. Weekends at the drive-ins (often the only venues that would show these features) were a mainstay of my early adult life.

Meanwhile, I was reading constantly (as I still do) all the masters of horror, working my way through the entire canon of Poe and Lovecraft multiple times. Harlan Ellison and EC Comics, and later Stephen King were also a main ingredient of my literary diet. I was introduced to Tolkien and Stephen R. Donaldson at an early age as well and also enjoy Epic Fantasy.

In college, I was a scholar of both literature and film studies, and my master's thesis was a study of the psychological state of the horror film spectator and horror novel reader.

Though I still am required to maintain full-time employment, I spend most of my spare time writing short stories, novellas and screenplays.

I am the author of the collection of supernatural horror and dark fantasy "On the Verge of Madness." I am working on a second collection, "Silhouette of Darkness." The former was self-published, the latter will be published by Spinetinglers Publishing.

I have more bio info, sample stories and excerpts at Authors Den.

From “Spinetinglers”:





On the Verge of Madness

By George Wilhite



“I wake up in a world of utter silence...”



All of us are haunted by something—our pasts, fear of our futures, even the memory of a departed loved one. The questions remain: Do we let these demons that haunt us destroy us? Do we let them make us obsess? Do we surrender to them? Do we let them to take us to the brink? Do we fight them or do we stay on the…
