My New Found-Footage Horror Short, The Custodians, Is Now Available

I'm excited to announce the release of my new independent found-footage horror short, The Custodians, now available to watch on YouTube.

The film follows a man who has decided to document a secret his family has kept for generations. He believes something ancient has been watching his apartment complex for a very long time, and as he ventures farther from his apartment, he begins to suspect that he may not be alone.

With The Custodians, I wanted to explore how an ordinary setting can become unsettling when viewed through the lens of something mysterious and potentially enormous in scope. The story begins with a serious confession and gradually moves toward a discovery that takes things in an unexpected direction.

As with my other independent films, I handled the writing, directing, filming, and editing myself. I enjoy the creative challenge of making found-footage horror with limited resources, using atmosphere, pacing, and an unusual central idea to create something memorable.

If you enjoy found-footage horror, slow-burn suspense, unsettling mysteries, and independent filmmaking, I hope you'll give it a watch.

It Waits at the Lodge Reaches 3,000 Hours of YouTube Watch Time

I'm happy to share a milestone for my independent found-footage horror film, It Waits at the Lodge: the film has officially reached 3,000 hours of watch time on YouTube.

Released in 2025, It Waits at the Lodge is an approximately 40-minute horror film about Chris Sanders, who seeks solitude at a remote lodge, only to experience a series of strange and troubling disturbances.

I wrote, directed, acted in, and edited the film myself, completing it in about two weeks while working full-time. It's a very independent production, made with the resources available to me, so seeing the film accumulate this much viewing time is especially meaningful.

Three thousand hours amounts to 125 days of cumulative viewing. Of course, that doesn't mean any one person spent that long watching the film. It means that, added together, viewers have devoted that much time to something I created.

The journey hasn't been without its challenges. Independent filmmaking means putting a tremendous amount of time and effort into a project without knowing how audiences or festivals will respond. That's part of what makes milestones like this encouraging: the film continues to find viewers beyond its original release.

I'm grateful to everyone who has watched It Waits at the Lodge, left a comment, shared it with another horror fan, or recommended it to someone else. Your support helps independent films continue to find an audience.

If you enjoy found-footage horror, slow-burning mysteries, and unsettling stories told through a camera's lens, you can watch the full film on YouTube here:

I Kept Finding a Girl in My Mailbox

So...I found a tiny porcelain girl in my mailbox.

Naturally, I made a horror film about it.

I Kept Finding a Girl in My Mailbox is now available on YouTube: https://youtu.be/vSidGNHWt3U

The premise is pretty simple: Chris opens his mailbox and discovers a tiny porcelain girl inside.

And then things get increasingly strange.

That's about as much as I want to reveal about the story here. There are a few things that happen along the way that I think are much more effective if you encounter them while watching the film rather than reading about them beforehand.

It's another short found-footage horror story, built around the idea of taking something completely ordinary — checking your mailbox — and introducing one very strange thing into it.

From there, I let the situation escalate.

Watch I Kept Finding a Girl in My Mailbox on YouTube: https://youtu.be/vSidGNHWt3U

This is my latest little horror film, following I Came Home But My Apartment Was Gone, which I released recently. I'm having fun continuing to make these strange, small-scale found-footage stories — especially ones that I can create largely on my own and that start with an ordinary situation before taking a turn into something much less ordinary.

I hope you'll give it a watch.

And if you do, I'd love to know what you think.

Bizarre Evening Deaths Receives Honorable Mention from LA Indie Horror Fest

I have some nice news about my short horror film Bizarre Evening Deaths.

The film was not selected for the official lineup of this year's LA Indie Horror Fest, but the festival has given it an Honorable Mention, recognizing what they described as its “innovative take on horror.”

The festival also had some particularly kind words about the film's creativity and inventiveness, encouraging me to continue pursuing unusual ideas and keeping my imagination active.

That part actually means quite a bit to me. One of the things I try hardest to do with my films is make something that feels a little different from what I've seen before, rather than simply making another variation on a familiar horror concept. So having a festival specifically recognize that quality is gratifying.

Bizarre Evening Deaths now has an official Honorable Mention laurel from LA Indie Horror Fest, which I'll be adding to the film's promotional materials.

Onward to the next weird thing.

The Ashes of Tomorrow Box Set Is Now Available

I’ve just released something a little different: the Ashes of Tomorrow Box Set, bringing three of my young adult dystopian books together in one collection.

[Get the Ashes of Tomorrow Box Set on Amazon for $6.99 → https://tinyurl.com/bdhu7uak]

The collection includes The Fourth Generation, Mass Exodus, and The Castle in the Girl—three stories that explore survival, identity, rebellion, secrets, and what happens when young people are forced to question the worlds they've been told to accept.

What's Inside?

The Fourth Generation

In a world where no one lives past seventeen, a dying boy's final wish to uncover the rulers' forbidden mansion leads to a secret that could determine the survival of humanity itself.

Mass Exodus

When her father vanishes from the last human settlement on Earth, seventeen-year-old Jayniss defies the rules to search for him—only to uncover terrifying truths about intelligent predators and the fragile survival of humankind.

The Castle in the Girl

When Princess Michelle begins dreaming of a strange modern world and hears a mysterious voice urging her to find the castle dungeon, she must uncover the terrifying truth behind her seemingly perfect kingdom—and the secrets hidden within her own identity.

Together, the three books total roughly 140,000 words, making the box set a substantial collection for readers who enjoy YA dystopian fiction.

The Ashes of Tomorrow Box Set is available now for $6.99 on Amazon.

The Castle in the Girl — New YA Novella

The Castle in the Girl Is Now Available

I'm excited to announce the release of my newest book, The Castle in the Girl, a YA science-fiction/fantasy novella: https://tinyurl.com/3pca44z2

This is a story that begins in what seems like a fairly traditional fantasy world.

Sixteen-year-old Michelle lives with her family in a magnificent castle in the peaceful kingdom of Allendia. She spends her days practicing sword fighting with her older brother Caleb, riding her beloved horse Snow, reading, attending elaborate royal balls, and spending time with her closest friends.

By all appearances, Michelle has an extraordinarily happy life.

But then she begins having nightmares.

They're not the usual nightmares, either.

Michelle keeps dreaming about enormous buildings made of glass and steel—towering structures that stretch impossibly high into the sky. She knows them as skyscrapers, even though no such buildings exist anywhere in her kingdom. In fact, as far as she knows, they've never existed anywhere in her world.

Her family dismisses the dreams as nonsense.

Michelle isn't so sure.

As the nightmares become increasingly vivid, small details of her supposedly perfect life begin to seem strange. Her family and friends repeatedly tell her how happy she is. She finds herself becoming less emotional about the people she supposedly loves most. And the closer she gets to understanding her dreams, the more unsettling the truth becomes.

Eventually, Michelle's nightmares take her somewhere very different from the castle she's always known.

And she discovers that the world she thought she understood is not the world she is actually living in.

I don't want to say too much more about the story because one of the things I enjoyed about The Castle in the Girl is the gradual discovery of what's really happening. What initially appears to be a fantasy story eventually becomes something quite different.

At its heart, though, the book is about Michelle and the people she loves.

It's about what happens when someone loses virtually everything—and about the strange ways the mind can try to protect itself from unbearable pain.

It's also a book about moving forward.

The Castle in the Girl is approximately 30,000 words and is being released exclusively as an ebook.

The ebook is available now for $2.99: https://tinyurl.com/3pca44z2

If you decide to read it, I'd love to hear what you think. And if you enjoy the book, leaving a review on Amazon or Goodreads is enormously helpful to an independent author.

Thank you for supporting my writing!

I Came Home But My Apartment Was Gone — New Found-Footage Horror Short

Just in time for Halloween, my latest short film is now available on YouTube:

I Came Home But My Apartment Was Gone (https://youtu.be/JU2PTCOJQcc)

The basic premise is simple: a man comes home expecting to find his apartment, only to discover that it has somehow disappeared.

In its place is a cabin.

And that's only the beginning.

I wanted to make something that started with a fairly straightforward mystery and gradually became stranger and more unsettling. Like some of my other found-footage work, the story is largely told through the camera of the person experiencing it rather than through traditional cinematic coverage.

This one also allowed me to lean a little further into the weird side of horror. There are some intentionally absurd elements mixed in with the mystery, while the main character's situation becomes increasingly disturbing as time passes.

And yes, there is a reason for that extremely strange-looking person on the television.

I'm not going to explain what it is here. You'll have to watch the film.

The Jungle Vendetta Is Out Today!

I'm very excited to announce the release of my new novel, The Jungle Vendetta. (Amazon link: https://tinyurl.com/2t7fj36b)

This one has a somewhat unusual history.

About thirteen years ago, while studying Writing Popular Fiction at Seton Hill University, I wrote The Jungle Vendetta as my MFA thesis.

And then...it sat there.

For years.

I've published quite a few books since then, made films, produced short-form projects, and generally kept creating. But The Jungle Vendetta was always one of those books I remembered having written.

Now I'm finally giving it a life beyond the hard drive.

So what is it about?

Twelve-year-old Kreith Briggs is about to enter the most dangerous jungle in the universe.

When Kreith travels to the distant planet Metcor with his uncle, a retired Intergalactic Marine, he expects an exciting adventure.

He gets considerably more than he bargained for.

The Azkraal Jungle is filled with bizarre and deadly creatures, and Kreith quickly discovers that surviving there requires considerably more than courage. Along with his uncle and a young hunter named Azanda, he begins uncovering clues that suggest something much bigger—and much darker—is happening in the jungle.

What starts as a survival adventure eventually becomes a mystery involving secrets from the planet's past.

At its heart, though, The Jungle Vendetta is a story about fear, courage, friendship, family, and discovering that you may be capable of more than you think.

Why publish it now?

Partly because I still like the story.

But there's another reason.

Writing The Jungle Vendetta was an important part of my development as a writer. It was my MFA thesis, and it represents a particular point in my journey as an author.

I'm obviously not exactly the same writer I was thirteen years ago.

But rather than leave the book buried forever, I decided it was time to let readers decide what they think of it.

So, after all these years...

The Jungle Vendetta is finally available.

📚 The Jungle Vendetta by Chris von Halle
💰 Ebook: $4.99

👉 Get your copy on Amazon: https://tinyurl.com/2t7fj36b

If you're a fan of middle-grade science fiction, alien worlds, dangerous creatures, mysteries, and old-fashioned adventure, I hope you'll give it a chance.

And if you do read it, I'd genuinely love to hear what you think.

Thanks for reading—and welcome to the Azkraal Jungle. 🌿

Valeria: The Resurgence Is Now Available

I'm excited to announce the release of Valeria: The Resurgence, the second book in my Valeria science fiction series! (Amazon link: https://tinyurl.com/43kybvyh)

This is another one of those books that has been sitting on my hard drive for years.

Lately, I've been making an effort to finally release some of those older projects rather than letting them remain permanently hidden away on my computer. The Resurgence is the latest to make its escape.

About the book

Myrdra Grizwold thought she had already faced some of the greatest threats in the Valerian Empire.

She was wrong.

When a disturbing discovery leads Myrdra back to Nebtrod, she finds herself caught up in a dangerous movement among the Giblins. As she investigates, strange connections begin emerging between the events unfolding in the present and the ancient history of the Valerian Empire.

And something that was supposed to be gone forever may not be quite as gone as everyone believed.

The Resurgence continues Myrdra's story while expanding the world of Valeria and exploring the complicated relationship between Valerians and Giblins.

It's approximately 25,000 words and is being released as an ebook-only title.

Start the series

The Resurgence is Book 2 of the Valeria series, so if you haven't read the first installment, The Vault of Secrets, I'd recommend starting there.

Introducing Valeria: The Vault of Secrets

 I have another book out in the world!

Valeria: The Vault of Secrets is now available as an ebook for $2.99, and this one is another trip into my back catalog. You can find it here: https://tinyurl.com/bdcnxf42

I actually wrote Valeria about seven years ago.

And then... I left it sitting on my hard drive. 😂

Apparently, I'm doing a little spring cleaning. Except it's August, and my “old files” are measured in years.

I recently released another book that had been sitting around for 13–15 years, so this is becoming something of a trend. Maybe I should keep digging through those old hard drives and see what else I find.

A Middle-Grade Science-Fantasy Adventure

The story follows thirteen-year-old Myrdra Grizwold, a history buff living on one of the moons of the vast Valerian Empire.

When a ruthless political candidate begins making his bid for power, Myrdra discovers a disturbing secret from his past. Her attempt to expose him soon leads her into a much larger mystery involving the ancient history of the empire—and questions that have remained unanswered for centuries.

A thousand years earlier, the infamous ruler Zaroth Kurwahl attempted to destroy the Valerian Empire with an army of gigantic machines. Although his attack was eventually stopped, the mystery surrounding what caused him to turn against the empire has never truly been solved.

Now Myrdra is about to discover that some secrets are better left buried.

Valeria: The Vault of Secrets combines science fiction, fantasy, mystery, adventure, political intrigue, and a young heroine determined to uncover the truth.

Why Release It Now?

Honestly, part of the reason is simply that I got tired of having books sitting around that nobody could read.

I've written quite a few stories over the years, and not every manuscript immediately becomes a major project. Sometimes a book gets finished, gets put away, and then life moves on.

That's basically what happened with Valeria.

Seven years later, I decided it deserved a chance to actually exist outside my hard drive.

So here it is.

If you're a fan of middle-grade science fiction, fantasy, mysteries, or adventure stories—or if you know a young reader who is—I'd love for you to check it out.

VALERIA: THE VAULT OF SECRETS

Available now as an ebook for $2.99.

One more old manuscript has officially escaped the hard drive. 😂

The Wasteland Child Is Finally Out in the World

After roughly 13–15 years, I’ve finally released The Wasteland Child, a science-fiction/fantasy adventure novel I originally began working on while earning my MFA in Writing Popular Fiction.

It’s a little strange—and honestly pretty satisfying—to finally see this book available to readers after all this time.

A Story That Took a Long Time to Get Here

The Wasteland Child takes place in the lush jungles of Amnar, where every child possesses the ability to control beasts with their minds.

Every child except Dwyth.

Branded “The Ungifted One,” Dwyth is treated as a disappointment by his village and expects to spend his life doing small, meaningless work.

Then he discovers that the parents who raised him aren't his real parents.

Even more shocking, he learns that he originally came from the deadly Wasteland beyond the jungle.

Determined to uncover the truth about his past, Dwyth runs away from the only home he's ever known and enters a world controlled by the Metrodites—humans of steel and circuitry who have long been enemies of his people.

There, he meets Zarana, a mysterious girl hiding a secret of her own.

Dwyth was born without psychic power.

Zarana was born with it—but is forbidden to use it.

Their meeting forces both of them to question what they've been taught about power, humanity, and the supposedly unbreakable divide between their two worlds.

Why Release It Now?

This book has been sitting around for a long time.

I first worked on The Wasteland Child while I was getting my MFA, roughly 13–15 years ago. Like a lot of creative projects, it went through various stages of development, got put aside, and eventually became one of those books that I wasn't quite sure I'd ever actually release.

But I've continued writing and making things over the years, and eventually I figured: why not?

It's a story I spent a lot of time on, and I'd rather finally put it out into the world than have it sit on a hard drive forever.

So that's what I'm doing.

It's not accompanied by a huge marketing campaign or a fancy publishing rollout. It's simply an ebook, available for $4.99, and after all these years, The Wasteland Child is finally out there.

If you've read any of my other books, I'd love for you to give this one a shot—and if you're discovering my work for the first time, welcome.

The Wasteland Child is available now.

NEW RELEASE: “Don’t Open After Sunset” (Short Horror Film)

I’m excited to share my latest short horror film, Don’t Open After Sunset, now officially available to watch on my YouTube channel.

This is a found-footage horror short set in a remote cabin where a simple weekend of solitude quickly turns into something far more unsettling. The story follows a man who arrives expecting a quiet digital detox, only to discover a warning left behind: Don’t Open After Sunset. What follows is a slow escalation of strange sounds, unexplained disturbances, and something that refuses to stay outside.

This project is very much a DIY, solo-made film—written, filmed, and edited by me—and continues my exploration of minimalist horror storytelling. I’ve always been drawn to tension built through atmosphere, sound design, and restraint rather than constant jump scares, and this film is an extension of that approach.

Found-footage is a format I keep returning to because of how intimate it feels. It places the viewer directly inside the experience, blurring the line between fiction and something that feels discovered rather than created.

If you enjoy slow-burn horror, eerie sound design, and unsettling endings that linger after the screen goes dark, I hope you’ll check it out.

You can watch it here: https://youtu.be/QWf2BCo3kF8

Thanks for watching and for all the support—it genuinely means a lot as I continue building these independent projects.

The Lake That Contains Water – A Short Film

I recently finished a short film titled The Lake That Contains Water, a found-footage mockumentary centered around a character named Daniel Mercer and his attempt to document the existence of a lake monster.

This project really started with the character.

Daniel is someone who approaches everything with total certainty. He has a clear framework for how the world works, and once that framework is in place, everything he observes fits neatly into it—whether it should or not.

The film follows his process over a series of days as he gathers what he believes to be meaningful evidence. The structure is simple, but it allowed me to focus on consistency—how he speaks, how he reacts, and how confidently he draws conclusions from very little.

I was especially interested in how far that confidence could carry the film on its own.

It’s a small, contained project—one character, one location—but very deliberate in how it builds that perspective over time.

The film runs around 5 minutes and is now up on YouTube: https://youtu.be/jrvXmzEOBJg

If you watch it, I’d be interested in what you think of the character and whether his perspective holds together throughout.

New Book Release: How We Destroyed the Elven King’s Three Fiery Rings of Doom

I’m excited to announce the release of my newest middle-grade fantasy comedy adventure ebook, How We Destroyed the Elven King’s Three Fiery Rings of Doom, currently for only 99 cents!

The story begins with three best friends—Ben, Joe, and Dana—checking out Joe’s supposedly magical wardrobe. Instead of dust bunnies, they find something much worse: a portal that pulls them into a completely chaotic fantasy world.

Once there, things go downhill quickly.

They encounter a dragon who quotes The Wizard of Oz, a permanently irritated faum (which is definitely not a faun), and a wizard who insists on eating sweet-and-sour chicken while casting spells. And presiding over the whole mess is a villainous Elven King who possesses three fiery rings capable of destroying everything.

Unfortunately for Ben, Joe, and Dana, the only way home is to destroy those rings first.

This book is written as a fast-paced, humorous fantasy adventure for middle-grade readers who enjoy portal stories and fantasy parodies. If you enjoy classic portal fantasies like The Chronicles of Narnia, as well as modern middle-grade adventures like Fablehaven and The Land of Stories, this story might be right up your alley.

The book also features characters from my earlier story How We Became Intergalactic Superheroes, though it’s designed so new readers can jump in without reading that one first.

If you'd like to learn more or grab a copy, the book is now available on Amazon here:  https://tinyurl.com/2epd8mcs

Thanks for reading—and if you ever encounter a magical wardrobe that burps, you might want to think twice before climbing inside. 🚪🔥

It Waits at the Lodge Passes 1,000 Hours of Watch Time on YouTube

My solo found-footage horror film It Waits at the Lodge recently crossed a milestone: 1,000 hours of watch time on YouTube since its release on December 15, 2025.

For those unfamiliar with the project, It Waits at the Lodge is a 40-minute horror film that I filmed and edited entirely myself. The story follows a man staying alone at a quiet lodge who begins to experience strange disturbances—subtle at first, but gradually escalating into something much more disturbing.

Creating the film was an interesting creative experiment for me. Most people know my work through my books, particularly the Between Dark and Light series, but I’ve always enjoyed exploring storytelling in different formats. Found-footage horror seemed like the perfect format for a small, one-person production.

What’s been especially fun since releasing the film is seeing people discover it and share their reactions in the comments. Some viewers have found it unsettling, some have had questions about what exactly is happening, and others have shared their own interpretations of the story.

Reaching 1,000 hours of watch time means that audiences have collectively spent more than 41 full days watching the film, which is a pretty cool milestone for an independent project.

Second Festival Selection for OMG, You’re, Like, Totally Haunted!

I’m excited to share that my 4.5-minute found-footage comedy short, OMG, You’re, Like, Totally Haunted!, has been officially selected by the Austin Micro Film Festival!

The festival screens at Southwest Theatres Lake Creek 7 in Austin, and this marks the film’s second festival selection, following its earlier recognition at Indie Short Fest in Los Angeles.

The short follows a shy man who moves into a new apartment and begins documenting what he believes is paranormal activity — creaking doors, cold spots, faint giggles — only to discover he may be sharing the space with the ghost of a seventeen-year-old valley girl who gradually starts influencing his personality in increasingly pink and pumpkin-spice directions.

The film was shot on a $90 camera and leans into the sincerity of found-footage horror before slowly unraveling into absurd character comedy. What started as a small creative experiment has now resonated with two separate festival programming teams — which is a reminder that algorithms and curators don’t always respond to the same signals.

While the short has had modest traction online, I’m grateful to see it finding life in theatrical settings and festival programs.

More to come.

The One Who Watches (When the Monster Isn’t the Real Problem)

Some stories begin with fear.

Others begin with curiosity.

The One Who Watches started with a question that wouldn’t leave me alone: What if the creature in the woods isn’t evil—but isn’t safe either?

Growing up, I was fascinated by campfire legends and local myths—the kinds of stories that made the forest feel alive after dark. Sasquatch stories, in particular, always walked that uncomfortable line between wonder and dread. Something ancient. Something watching. Something that might notice you noticing it.

This story follows a twelve-year-old girl who prides herself on being logical and science-minded—and who is forced to confront the fact that some truths don’t fit neatly into data and evidence. It’s a story about friendship, responsibility, and the realization that protection can quietly turn into obsession.

Middle grade horror has always felt uniquely powerful to me. Kids in these stories aren’t shielded from fear—they face it head-on, often without fully understanding the consequences. That’s where real tension lives. Not just in what’s lurking in the woods, but in what happens after the secret is discovered.

If you enjoy eerie mysteries, unsettling folklore, and stories that trust younger readers with emotional complexity, I hope The One Who Watches finds its way to you.

Just remember—some legends are better left unseen.

The One Who Watches is currently available on Amazon for 99¢: https://tinyurl.com/5ywcc9un

 

It Waits at the Lodge — My Solo 40-Minute Found-Footage Horror Film is Now Online

Some guests never leave…

I’m excited to finally release It Waits at the Lodge, a 40-minute found-footage horror film I shot entirely solo. At a remote retreat meant for solitude and self-reflection, a man begins documenting his stay—only to capture unsettling evidence that he’s not alone, and that something—or someone—is determined to unearth what he’s buried deep inside.

This project was a personal experiment in psychological horror and isolation, blending elements of identity horror with the slow-burn tension of films like Creep, Lake Mungo, The Taking of Deborah Logan, Hell House LLC, and The Blair Witch Project. I wanted to see if I could sustain atmosphere, dread, and tension for a full 40 minutes on my own — writing, directing, performing, and filming every shot.

I’m thrilled to finally share it with you all. If you enjoy atmospheric, unsettling horror, I hope It Waits at the Lodge leaves you thinking about what lurks in the corners long after the credits roll.
