edit data

Hailing from a dark crevice on the Jersey Shore, Rafael Marmol is author to over a hundred twisted stories found across Reddit’s NoSleep, ShortScaryStories, and DarkTales subreddits, under the username, /u/Human_Gravy. Several of his stories have been adapted into audio dramas by The NoSleep Podcast and narrators across many YouTube channels in various languages. Rafael loves to craft stories about the strange, macabre, and uncanny. He also dips his toes into the world of science fiction and fantasy on occasion.

His main inspirations are Stephen King, Brian Keene, Anne Rice, Joe R. Lansdale, Clive Barker, George R.R. Martin, Joe Abercrombie, Brandon Sanderson, and Rod Serling.

When he is not writing, he is punishing himself for not doing so. ...more
