In this episode of Paranormal Underground Radio: In The Dark, we talk with Nuzo Onoh, the Queen of AfricanHorror. Nuzo is the creator of chilling horror fiction from the AfricanContinent. Her books have introduced African Horror to the international stage.Nuzo’s works have been described as “deeply disturbing,” “spine-chilling,” and“gripping and haunting.”
Nuzo has spear-headed this new andunexplored horror subgenre. She states that her goal is to establish AfricanHorror as bona-fide horror subgenre, rather than the general perception of theterm as a negative condition of the continent as portrayed by the popularmedia. It is Nuzo’s hope that, soon, African Horror will be recognized andenjoyed as other regional horror subgenres, such as Japanese, Korean andScandinavian horror.
A British writer of Africandescent, Nuzo was born in Enugu, the Eastern part of Nigeria, formerly known asThe Republic of Biafra. She lived through the civil war between Nigeria andBiafra as a child refugee, an experience that left a strong impact on her andhas influenced some of her writing.

She holds both a law degree and a master's degree in writing from TheUniversity of Warwick, England.

A keen musician, Nuzo plays boththe piano and the box guitar and enjoys recording demos of her songs. She alsoruns African story-telling workshops for primary school children. Nuzo is astrong believer in The Law of Attraction and the philosophy of mind overmatter.
