About The Back Room

The Back Room is where I keep the stories that live in the shadows — the strange, the uncanny, the whispered, and the not‑quite‑explainable. It’s the part of my creative house reserved for the narratives that don’t fit neatly into history books or polite conversation. Here, folklore brushes against lived experience, mysteries linger without resolution, and the edges of the known world feel just a little thinner.

This space exists for the curious reader who doesn’t mind stepping into dimmer light, who enjoys the quiet thrill of an unanswered question, and who understands that some stories are meant to be felt as much as understood. The Back Room is where I explore the eerie and the enigmatic with the same care and intention I bring to my historical work — just with the lights turned low and the atmosphere turned up.
