More About the Author

David B. Silva has written seven novels, his most recent, All The Lonely People, a story about Chase Hanford, who owns a little bar at the edge of town, with a few regulars and not much else. Until a man shows up one day with a spirit box. When the contents of the box are released, Chase awakens with the realization that bits and pieces of his life are being stolen and he sets out to regain control of his very soul.

Silva's first short story was published in 1981. His short fiction has since appeared in The Year's Best Horror, The Year's Best Fantasy & Horror, and The Best American Mystery Stories. In 1991, he won a Bram Stoker Award for his short story, "The Calling." His first collection, Through Shattered Glass, was published by Gaunlet Press in 2001. In 2009, Dark Regions published his collection of eleven new stories and one reprint, In The Shadows of Kingston Mills.

He is probably best known as the editor of The Horror Show, which was published quarterly from 1982 to 1991. This small-press horror magazine won a World Fantasy Award in 1988 and went on to publish the first early works of some of today's most talented and influential horror authors, such as Bentley Little, Brian Hodge, and Poppy Z. Brite.

Silva co-edited (with Paul F. Olson) two anthologies published by St. Martins Press: Post Mortem and Dead End: City Limits. In addition, he edited The Definitive Best of The Horror Show, published by CD Publications in 1992.

In addition, from February 1997 until September 2002, and from late 2004 until the present, Silva served as co-editor (along with Paul F. Olson) of Hellnotes. Originally a weekly subscription newsletter dedicated to the horror professional and horror fan alike, Hellnotes is currently a free blog, updated several times a day with latest news in the horror genre.

4.0 out of 5 stars What scares you?, July 19, 2002
By 
This review is from: Night in Fog (Paperback)
...I mean, what really scares you?

Bryan recalls the day before Halloween, 12 years earlier, when his younger brother, Rick, calls him to ask for a meeting. Bryan wants nothing more to do with this brother--the man he hasn't seen in 25 years--but he feels compelled to meet with Rick if only to finally put closure to their relationship. What was it that really made Rick seem to lose his mind as a young boy when he acted out his horrible fantasies? Did Rick only imagine the mysterious Jude Fairclough? Is he a hero or a sick villain? Bryan realizes a bit too late the horrible plans his brother has in mind for their visit.

This is truly a creepy little story. Silva leaves you guessing at the end. I enjoyed the flashbacks via Rick's letters to his brother. This is a well-written, hair-raising tale. Keep in mind that this is a short chapbook (32 pages), so weigh the value of one story against the price. You definitely won't regret reading this one, but you might regret paying so much to get it!

5.0 out of 5 stars A moving experience by master David B. Silva, August 19, 2000

(VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Night in Fog (Paperback)
THE NIGHT IN FOG is a tale of truth and belief in one's brother. Bryan gets a call to meet his just-released-from-jail brother, Rick to meet at a motel. They haven't seen or talked to one another since Rick was put in jail for murder. Rick claimed a mysterious Jude Fairclough drew him into her spell to kill, while Bryan finds that hard to believe. The story takes you on what happened that night in the past and what happens after Rick gets out. This 9,000 word story tears your heart out as we sympathize with Bryan's choices in how to deal with Rick. But we also can see how Rick got to be where ends up. A great storyteller looking into the love of brothers and the choices they make for each other and themselves. Recommended.
