ABOUT
About Unmasking Evil
Unmasking Evil is a dark storytelling and commentary project exploring crime, human nature, and the choices people make when the light side fails them. Through Texas-based thrillers, eerie fiction, and feral life lessons, it’s built for readers who prefer honesty over comfort — and villains over fairytales.
What started as crime fiction has grown into something larger: a place for stories, observations, and aftermath. The motel theme you’ll see throughout the site isn’t decoration. It’s a framework. A way of organizing what people bring with them, what they leave behind, and what refuses to check out when the night is over.
Created by Loretta & David Allseitz, Unmasking Evil blends psychological crime fiction with sharp observations about survival, morality, and the lies people tell themselves to get through the day. These stories don’t offer easy answers or clean justice. They live in moral gray areas, where silence can be an accomplice and doing the “right thing” often comes with a cost.
Loretta & David are the authors of A Texas Thriller of Murder and Betrayal series, crafting unsettling, atmospheric stories rooted in small towns and long shadows. Their work focuses on tension, psychology, and aftermath rather than shock — letting unease linger long after the final page.
