I am a professional writer, who specializes in horror. I love ghost stories, and am also a paranormal investigator. I also am a martial arts (Kajukenbo) instructor. Anything else you want to know, feel free to ask.
Read these fine books! Why? Because I wrote them!
Who I'd like to meet: Danny Elfman, Ric Flair, Richard Matheson, Clive Barker, Tim Burton, and a slew of others from various fields.
Yeah, I know. I will. I'm still a clumsy shit as always. I was going upstairs and tripped and fell. I was carrying orange juice. So i'm sticky and my knee is really bruised. What's with the stairs?

Hi! Just wanted to make sure all my friends know that my 2nd horror novel SACRIFICE is now in stores everywhere, including Amazon.com! I hope you'll check out this debauched and demonic horror ride! Here are a couple reviews it's gotten so far:
“SACRIFICE is a full frontal assault on your senses. It is a dark, brutal, bloody and terribly frightening book. Everson went deep into some dark abyss to bring this book to the light of day.... I highly recommend SACRIFICE.” —Famous Monsters of Filmland
“John Everson manages in SACRIFICE to dispense buckets of blood, provide edgy perversity, and walk the tenuous tightrope of horror and sex without falling: It’s rather an amazing feat.” –Hell Notes

JEFFERSON, ....Texas.... (March 9, 2009) Rick Moran, Coordinator and Chairman of the Board of the A.S.U.P, Inc.
(The Association for the Study of Unexplained Phenomenon) a 35 year old paranormal field research organization, has confirmed that The Pride House of Jefferson, Texas, a bed and breakfast, is in fact, a haunted location.
A team of researchers from the A.S.U.P, Inc.
, who is a T.A.P.S.
affiliate, was invited to conduct an overnight investigation of the Pride House by current owner, Jenny Lovelace-Elliott. Mrs. Elliott, who has recently purchased The Pride House, began to notice strange occurrences in the house shortly after she began renovating the property for the bed and breakfast.
The A.S.U.P., Inc.
team of researchers arrived on site and proceeded to conduct its investigation of The Pride House, which included the grounds, main house, and the carriage house.
Several amazing photos and Electronic Voice Phenomenon (EVPs) were captured, as well as personal experiences by the investigators. One photo in particular is of a ghostly presence on the staircase in the main house, which experts have not been able to explain as other than paranormal.
On April 25, 2009, beginning at 4 p.m., Mr.
Moran will be giving a FREE presentation at The Pride House explaining the recent investigation by the A.S.U.P., Inc. A plaque will be presented to Mrs. Elliott confirming the haunted status of The Pride House, along with a copy of the now famous photo of the ghost on the staircase.
The Pride House will be hosting a wine and cheese event during the presentation for a donation of $5.
00, if one wishes to have a glass of wine. However, the A.S.U.P., Inc. presentation itself is FREE, and Rick will be on hand to answer any questions anyone might have about unexplained phenomenon and his long career as an investigator. Mr.
