Andrés Torres H. was born in Quito, Ecuador, and from a very young age became interested in history and storytelling. As a kid, before even being able to read or write, he used to scribble and doodle on post-it notes and pretend they were fantastical stories. In school, he started making his own comic books, and once he entered college to study filmmaking, he began writing screenplays and novels, as well as directing short films and music videos, most of them with a dark fantasy undertone to them. Since graduating college he has written one horror novel and several short screenplays, and is currently working on his second novel, "The Ransom of the Sun," a historical fiction epic tale recounting the last days of the Inca Empire, as well as outlining the pilot for his horror/dark fantasy/history-inspired TV show, "The Eyes of Midnight," based on the early years of Spanish colonization of the territory that would become modern-day Ecuador, as well as developing the feature screenplay of "The Lovers," a horror/dark fantasy/romance proof-of-concept short film written, produced and directed by him.
