3 books in catalog
Chilling psychological thrillers and atmospheric horror fiction exploring domestic tension, isolation, and mind games have earned widespread acclaim across the suspense genre, starting with the breakout success of Baby Teeth. Author Zoje Stage established her reputation with this 2018 debut novel, which received a Bram Stoker Award nomination, was featured as a People magazine Book of the Week, and secured a film option with Village Roadshow and Valparaiso Pictures.
Her published body of work spans suspense novels, psychological horror, and dark whimsy, alongside shorter fiction such as Something of a Calling.
Before turning to full-length fiction, Stage developed a deep background in film and theatre. She earned recognition as a 2008 Screenwriting Fellow from the New York Foundation for the Arts and a 2012 Emerging Storytellers Fellow from the Independent Filmmaker Project. Drawing on her experience as a filmmaker, she transitioned into writing prose fiction, bringing visual pacing and character tension to her books.
Based in Pittsburgh with her cats, Stage followed her debut with a series of acclaimed releases in psychological suspense and horror. Her 2020 novel Wonderland was named one of Book Riot's Best Horror Books of 2020 and an Overdrive Best Audiobook of 2020. She went on to write the 2021 Grand Canyon backcountry thriller Getaway, followed by novels such as Mothered and Dear Hanna, as well as dark whimsy titles including My UnderSlumberBumbleBeast and The Girl Who Outgrew the World.
Stage's fiction frequently centers on intense psychological dynamics, claustrophobic environments, and characters facing extreme domestic or situational stress. Whether depicting mother-daughter hostility in Baby Teeth or environmental isolation in snowy settings or wilderness canyons in Wonderland and Getaway, her stories combine psychological realism with propulsive narrative momentum.
Her works have received praise from publications including Forbes, Library Journal, PopSugar, Barnes & Noble, Book Riot, BookPage, and Bloody Disgusting. Stage's character-driven approach focuses on grounded emotional friction and internal conflict to drive suspense forward without relying on unearned genre tropes.
