Krystal Hammond is a narrator/writer, cancer survivor, and nonbinary queer human. They grew up in rural North Carolina, nurtured by a steady diet of local Black Beard legends and Civil War era ghost stories. These nuggets of folktale and myth fostered a life-long love of storytelling and all the drama that goes with it, resulting in loads of trunk novels and dozens of audiobooks. They have a special knack for YA, a passion for horror and SFF, and a love for laughter.

They also have an MA in Biological Anthropology due to a chronic interest in dead people, and adore ugly cats.
