edit data

Chris Burton is a Hungarian fiction author living in Budapest, specialising in short stories, novellas, and grammatical mistakes.

Drawn to dark tales from a young age, Chris began publishing his unsolicited creations in 2024, blending elements of horror, thriller, mystery, fantasy, sci-fi, weird fiction and grotesque, sometimes with traces of dark humour.

In everyday life, Chris works in the field of [REDACTED], has chronic insomnia, and experiences intrusive thoughts more frequently than what is considered a healthy amount by healthcare professionals. In his spare time, he runs his own horror-inspired alternative rock music project but respectfully refuses to share any other specific details.
