Kriss Pickering
Kriss is a lifelong fan of horror, who’s love started with the 80’s slasher craze, but has since developed into an appreciation of all the sub genre’s.
Now 34, Kriss’ fascination with horror is as strong as it has ever been. An avid movie collector, he likes nothing more than finding the most obscure releases to add to his ever growing collection. He has also started collecting the horror toys that he wishes were around during his childhood.
Outside Horror, his taste for the terrifying and macabre continues with his love of watching his beloved Barnsley Football Club (you need to be seriously messed up to enjoy watching them!).
