Jeff Allen, a practicing dentist, is a graduate of Indiana University. He has a passion for American history, folklore, and those old-fashioned ghost stories like those told to him as a child late at night by his Auntie Fern, which he says, “scared the crap out of me.”
The son of a surgeon, Jeff spent his summers during college in the late 1980s as an orderly at St. John’s Hospital in Anderson, Indiana, often working the graveyard shift in a creepy old part of the hospital.
The author lives in Bloomington, Indiana, with his fantastically supportive wife, Kerri; his daughter Abby, and their five adorable dachshunds.
