A.C. Hessenauer describes herself as a writer of horror, chaos, and madness. Her latest novel, Going to the Six, was published by Cemetery Dance Publications in June 2026 and was selected for the Cemetery Dance Trade Paperback Book Club alongside works by Jack Ketchum, Bentley Little, and Brian Hodge. Going to the Six will also be released as an audiobook by Simon and Schuster Audio's Simon Maverick imprint in fall 2026.
When she’s not participating in macabre ceremonies dedicated to the eldritch horrors out in the woods, A.C. enjoys spending time with her family. She loves a good horror movie, and of course, getting swallowed whole by a good book.
A.C. is represented by Mark Falkin of Falkin Literary.
A Chronicle of Horrors
An Anthology
A Chronicle of Horrors invites readers on a chilling journey through time—each story an echo from a different decade, where fear evolves but never dies. From crumbling manors and gaslit streets to neon nightmares and haunted futures, this anthology traces the dark pulse of humanity across the ages. Every era has its monsters. Every age leaves its scars.
A Chronicle of Horrors will release in early January 2026 in both ebook and paperback formats. All proceeds will be donated to Scares That Care. Readers attending AuthorCon VI will have a chance to snag signatures from many of the participating authors.
