E.C. Salo

E.C. Salo (they/them) is a Latine author based on the east coast of the United States and a lifelong horror fan forever chasing the highs brought to them by certain Stephen King books or their fiftieth rewatch of Hannibal. They write primarily in contemporary lit, horror, erotica, and sometimes terrible mixes of all three. When not clacking away at a keyboard, they like digital painting and design, with a little merch shop at voidtime.lol, which is generally where they can be found. They’re currently at work on a to-be-self-published novel.

Read Salo’s short story “Pudica” in Horrific Scribes May 2026.

Description: She’s trapped in more ways than one, and today’s the day she runs—but she’ll be goddamned if she’s going alone.
