Shertina

A storyteller who turns nightmares into narratives. Based in Texas, she writes horror and psychological thrillers that explore the eerie corners of the human mind, family legacies, and unspoken fears. As the founder of Addison Payne Production, she blends her love of haunting tales with cinematic style, often drawing inspiration from real-life events, dreams, and her own childhood. Book of Nightmares marks a powerful collaboration with her son, Dylan Payne, and their shared mission to thrill, unsettle, and captivate readers who dare to follow the nightmare.
