Author of Horror, Weird Fiction, and Speculative Fiction, with the bulk of my work taking place in the connected universe of The Harrowick Chronicles. I'm a Featured Writer for r/Odd_Directions on Reddit and The Shadow Box Archives on Patreon.

You can find nearly all of my stories on my subreddit, r/TheVespersBell, or subscribe to my substack.

I'm also SCP/Backrooms author DrChandra. You can find me on Discord at thevespersbell, and find my books on Kindle.

Writing dark, structured fiction with a focus on historical detail and narrative precision. My work tries to focus on tension derived from authentic settings, archival mechanics, and the psychological impact of atmospheric dread rather than cheap shocks or worn-out tropes.

Currently, I am drafting a historical horror novel structured through sequential folios, beginning with an embedded translator's preface and moving chronologically through the text. The project explores the intersection of translation, historical isolation, and quiet terror.

Melissa Andres is a true aficionado of the horror genre, with a penchant for all things creepy and mysterious. She simply cannot resist a good suspenseful novel that keeps her on the edge of her seat. Melissa's love for this genre is evident in her extensive collection of thrilling books, which fill the shelves of her cozy reading nook. She is married to a wonderful man named Mark and the proud owner of two adorable dogs, Bandit and Cooper. Melissa finds solace in her reading escapades whenever she needs a break from her mentally-busy life. With her favorite tales of terror in hand and her furry companions by her side, she immerses herself in the realms of horror, allowing her imagination to run wild.

Just your average insomniac who writes spooky stories to distract myself from the horror of real life. When I’m not writing, I’m busy perfecting my coffee-to-creative output ratio.

I'm not perfect, but I try my best.
