Camillethespellpire

I write speculative fiction that blurs human and inhuman. Biopunk, dark fantasy, and urban horror focused on transformation, survival, and the beauty in darkness—where bio space ships roam, mermaids hunt, and monsters make the best family.

Delicious slow-burn horror that will keep you guessing!
