About the Author
Ed Perratore’s books include three horror novels: The Knock from Nobody, The Coven Tree and Hindred Spirits. His other published book, the nonfiction work One Man's Journey: A Walk on the Croton Aqueduct Trail, is Ed's informative, reflective and often humorous account of two round-trip hikes he took on the Old Croton Aqueduct Trail in Westchester County, New York. Ed’s career was in magazine writing and editing at Consumer Reports, PC Magazine and other renowned publications, but his earliest roots in horror are from TV fare such as Chiller Theater, Creature Features and The 4:30 Movie. He lives in Mount Kisco with his wife, Elena, a short drive from Sleepy Hollow.
