Biography:
S.A. Bradley is the host of Hellbent For Horror, a popular 4-time Rondo Award-nominated podcast exploring all things horror across books, film, comics, and music that has been described by director Guillermo Del Toro as "well researched, articulate and entirely absorbing." Bradley, who has loved being scared by over 1,600 horror films, turned his passion into purpose by sharing his expansive knowledge on countless podcasts and in anthologies like Medium Chill and EvilSpeak magazine. He has lectured at Webster University and The College of Idaho, and also performed his live show "My Horror Manifesto" in NYC and various horror conventions across the USA. Bradley's first book, Screaming for Pleasure: How Horror Makes You Happy and Healthy, is a thrilling ride through the horror genre, its intense effect on every generation, and how you can be enriched by horror. The book was nominated for a Rondo Award for Best Book of 2018. Prior to becoming a champion of horror, Bradley served in the U.S. Air Force and was a firefighter. He now lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with his wife and their dog, Fiona, where they can often be found meditating in a death metal mosh pit or dancing around a Northern Californian fire pit drum circle. Screaming for Pleasure is now included in the university curriculum at Webster University! Get your spook on by following Bradley on Twitter @hellbenthorror or on his website, Hellbentforhorror.com.
