About the Author
As Stark got older, he spent a couple of years living in Holland and Belgium, learning the languages and customs. When he returned, he earned a four-year degree in physics from Weber State University, which led him to think of himself as a bit of a 'mad scientist.'
Stark worked in the fields of physics and management, but never let go of his passion for the macabre. Ever since he was in grade school he would spend months preparing for his favorite holiday, Halloween, getting ready to frighten any trick-or-treater brave enough to stop by.
Always ready for an adventure, Stark enjoys camping, fishing, gold-panning, and treasure hunting. He also has a deep love for antique American coins, antique cars, and very old homes.
During a Halloween dance in college, dressed as a vampire, Stark met Jana, and for him it was love at first sight. For her, it took a few minutes to get over the awful trickle of blood streaming from Stark's mouth. But, not being one for wasting a lot of time, Stark proposed two weeks later, and that spring they were married.
Since then they have moved to Arizona, and they now have a young son, who often begs his father to tell scary stories at bedtime.
