Emmeline Lakin's love for books and storytelling inspires her to write everyday with a desire to entertain children and entice them to visit www.emmelinelakin.com to read more spooky tales.

"I grew up in a world filled with books. The most exciting part of summertime came in the evenings when Mother, a great storyteller, before bedtime began her most unusual tales, woven in faraway countries, filled with ghosts, witches, demons, monsters, dybbuks, golems, apparitions, spirits, everything that would make our hair stand up on the back of our necks. I want my young readers to experience that feeling of fun and fright while visiting my website and reading my books."

Emmeline Lakin lives in sunny Florida with her husband. She has two grandchildren.
