Stephen Young

    Steph Young je nezávislá výskumníčka, ktorá sa ponorila do sveta paranormálnych javov, nevysvetliteľných záhad, tajomnej histórie a mýtických tvorov. Jej práca sa často zameriava na znepokojujúce príbehy z lesov, zvláštne stretnutia a desivé záhady, ktoré sa prelínajú s folklórom a mytológiou. Youngová skúma nevyriešené zmiznutia a hľadá spojitosti medzi nadprirodzenom a stratenými osobami, pričom odhaľuje konšpirácie a skryté tajomstvá. Jej knihy nabádajú čitateľov k zamysleniu sa nad tým, či hranica medzi realitou a bájami nie je tenšia, než si myslíme, a či pravda nemôže byť desivejšia ako fikcia.
