Steph Young è una ricercatrice indipendente profondamente immersa nei regni del paranormale, dei misteri inspiegabili, del folklore oscuro e delle creature enigmatiche. La sua scrittura esplora frequentemente racconti inquietanti provenienti dai boschi, strani incontri e fenomeni sinistri che sfumano i confini tra folklore e realtà. Young indaga su sparizioni inspiegabili, cercando connessioni tra il soprannaturale e i dispersi, scoprendo cospirazioni e verità nascoste lungo il cammino. Le sue opere sfidano i lettori a considerare se il confine tra mito e mondo tangibile sia più sottile di quanto immaginiamo, e se la verità possa essere, di fatto, più terrificante della finzione.
