Monsters and Books

Inspired by a love of monsters and gore, Tampa, Florida author Chris Kullstroem spent a year traveling and documenting her visits to eleven countries touring monster festivals and horror attractions. The end result is her book, "Drawn to the Dark,” a travel narrative of her explorations and insights into the universal fascination with fear. The venture took Kullstroem a year of exploring new cities and another year to write.

Chris Kullstroem is a lifelong Halloween, horror and dark tourism fanatic. She has researched haunted houses, attractions, ghost tours, cemeteries and other scare-based tourism in other countries.
