Thomas Tryon Books

September 6, 1634 – August 21, 1703

Inspired by a classic horror film, this author transitioned from acting to writing, crafting his own chilling tales. His debut novel became an instant bestseller and was adapted for the screen, with the author contributing to both the script and production. Thereafter, he dedicated himself to fiction writing full-time, working diligently for hours each day with pencil and legal pads. His narratives often delve into mystery and the darker aspects of the human psyche, further enriched by his artistic and graphic design talents, evident even in his book jacket designs.

Entranced and terrified, the reader of The Other is swept up in the life of a Connecticut country town in the thirties—and in the fearful mysteries that slowly darken and overwhelm it. Originally published in 1971, The Other is one of the most influential horror novels ever written. Its impeccable recreation of small-town life and its skillful handling of the theme of personality transference between thirteen-year-old twins led to widespread critical acclaim for the novel, which was successfully filmed from Thomas Tryon's own screenplay. This edition features original artwork by surrealist artist Harry O. Morris.
