American writer, Jack Ketchum (1946-2018) is considered one of the most important voices in contemporary American horror. Pseudonym of Dallas Mayr, Ketchum's work has been labeled obscene and pornographic for its excessive violence

As a child, he was unsociable and solitary, preferring to wander through the forest or reading his favorite books and comics rather than spending time with other children. During that time, he met who would become his mentor and friend, Robert Bloch, author of Psycho

His works have received praise from major authors of the genre like Stephen King. Throughout his career, he received awards as significant as the Stoker, in both short story and novel categories. Several of his works were also adapted into film and television.
