Tonia Ransom is the creator and executive producer of Nightlife, a horror podcast featuring creepy tales written by Black writers. Tonia has been writing horror since the second grade, much to the dismay of the teachers in her rural East Texas community. Tonia tells horror stories regularly on Twitter, and in her spare time, she loves to hike, but normally chooses to sleep in instead. She lives in Austin, Texas (regretfully, during the summer).
