JOE KING
@JOE_KING
Joe King has been making readers scream with laughter for over two decades through his unique blend of horror and humor. Known as the "Crown Prince of Comedic Horror," Joe masterfully balances spooky thrills with uproarious punchlines in his bestselling books. His gallows humor and witty observations on the absurdity of life enrich his tales of zombies, ghosts, vampires, and other creepy creatures. Though the horrors in Joe's stories are very real, the true monster is human nature itself. Hailing from Peculiar, MO the self-described "funny farm" of entertainers, Joe learned the art of comedy writing by honing his craft at local comedy clubs. But his passion for horror drove him to put his spin on the genre. When he's not writing, you can find Joe King voraciously reading classic horror, watching cheesy B-movies, and sipping coffee at the local comedy club where he occasionally tests out jokes. Like the greatest masters of horror-comedy before him, Joe King understands the thin line between horror and humor, proving that laughs can arrive hand-in-hand with gasps and shrieks!
