Thomas M. Malafarina is a horror fiction author from Berks County, Pennsylvania. He was born July 23, 1955, in Ashland, Schuylkill County, PA, where he lived until moving to Berks County in 1979. Many of Thomas’s stories occur in his native Schuylkill County and Berks County settings. Thomas’s books are published by Hellbender Books, an imprint of Sunbury Press of Mechanicsburg, PA.
Thomas’s early novels included 99 Souls, Burn Phone, Eye Contact, and Fallen Stones, all four of which are now out of print, having been reworked and re-titled by Thomas from 2016-2019. They were replaced by the new books, What Waits Below, Burner, From the Dark, and Circle of Blood.
Other novels include three in his Dead Kill series, Dead Kill Book 1: The Ridge Of Death,Dead Kill Book 2: The Ridge of Change, and the third installment, Dead Kill Book 3: The Ridge of War.
His short story collection 13 Nasty Endings is no longer available, having been replaced by 13 Deadly Endings. Several of his earlier short story collections, Gallery of Horror, Malafarina Maleficarum Volume 1, and Malafarina Maleficarum Volume 2,are no longer available.
His other short story collections, Ghost Shadows, Horror Classics Volume 1 and Malaformed Realities Volume 1, Volume 2, Volume 3, Volume 4, Volume 5, and 6, are available. Malaformed Realities Volumes 7 and 8 will be released in 2023. Volume 9 will be released in 2024.
He has curated two short story collections, Undead Living and Hellbent Vol.1, for Hellbender Books. He also has a collection of single-panel cartoons called Yes, I Smelled It Too, Cartoons for the Hopelessly Off Center, Volume 1, Volume 2, Volume 3, and Volume 4. Volume 5 is in the works. In addition, many of Thomas’s stories appear in more than 200 anthologies from various publishers.
Thomas has had a lifelong love of the horror and monster genre in all its form of books, movies, and art. Annually, Thomas creates works of horror art, props, and scenery, which he donates to local charitable haunted attractions. Thomas lives outside Wernersville, PA, with his wife, JoAnne. They have three grown children and four grandchildren.
