Rebecca Golby
I hold both first and master’s degrees in English and Creative Writing, and I am a qualified teacher. A short film I scripted was screened at Cannes, and my work includes published poems and competition-winning screenplays. As a SEN and neurodivergent specialist, I bring diverse, authentic perspectives to my storytelling, often inspired by looking at familiar things in unfamiliar ways. My writing focuses on crafting dark, atmospheric stories, blending deep emotions with dark humour. I run Fangs and Fables, a blog exploring literary, cinematic, and mythological monsters, uncovering both popular and forgotten creatures and what they reveal about the societies that created them.

From Shadows to Spotlight: My Twisted 50 Adventure by Rebecca Golby
I couldn’t believe it; Twisted 50 Vol. 3 climbed to the number one spot in not one, not two, but three categories! As someone who once hesitated to even write horror, I now hold a physical copy in my hands—a book with my story inside. (Actually, I own three—the hardback, paperback, and Kindle versions, all of which are gorgeous!) Even more surreal? This spine-chilling collection is being gifted as Christmas presents for those who love the juxtaposition of Christmas cheer and horrific existential dread.
Living the Nightmare: How Hypnagogic and Hypnopompic Hallucinations Shaped My First Horror Story
For most people, horror is a genre that offers thrilling entertainment or a good scare. For me, horror is something I’ve spent years avoiding. This is because I experience both hypnagogic (falling asleep) and hypnopompic (waking up) hallucinations. Essentially, I ‘see’ my dreams for a minute or two after I wake up or as I’m falling asleep, meaning nightmares sometimes follow me into the waking world.
