about me


I’m Elizabeth Kuligowski—a writer with a love for spooky, atmospheric stories that blend the eerie with the everyday.

You know that spooky TV show you remember from your childhood? The one that creeps into your thoughts when the leaves turn orange? That’s the vibe I love to recreate—creepy, cozy, unsettling yet strangely comforting. That’s where my stories come from.

I’m originally from England, but currently live in Sweden with my husband and two kids. It’s a country with a rich storytelling heritage, full of old forests, frozen lakes, and snow—the perfect place to find inspiration. When I’m not writing, you’ll probably find me reading Stephen King or re-watching my favorite TV shows—Buffy, Twin Peaks, The X-Files (That 4:3 screen ratio gets me right in the nostalgia).

Writing is my way of processing the messy stuff—the things that grow bigger the more you try to ignore them. The things that keep you up at night, staring into the dark and wondering what’s out there. So, come process the feelings with me.

I hope my stories keep you guessing, give you a little welcome distraction from whatever you need distracting from, and maybe even stick with you after you turn the last page. Buy a book, or whatever!


red on the inside


My first published novel, Red On The Inside, is a contemporary Gothic tale about a new mother haunted by a doppelganger from a parallel reality. This sinister twin wants to take over her life, forcing her into a fight for survival and sanity. The story delves into dark family dynamics and the long-lasting effects of buried secrets. It's Poltergeist meets Single White Female, set in a quaint mountain town.

Shortlisted for the Women's Prize Discoveries Award.

Red On The Inside will be released through Burton Mayers Books in March 2025.
