Hi everyone, my name's Hayden Dutton or Hdutt2 as most know me by online. I'm an avid lover of all things horror and love any novel by Stephen King or H.P Lovecraft along with many others. I'm an author myself and have wrote numerous short stories and poems, my most notable ones include my epic poem Sunlight Wolf which won two contests and my contest/award winning short story Corpes Et Ame (Heart and Soul) which was a story about a man slowly suffocating in an endless cycle of life after marriage with no change and his deterioating thoughts about freedom and escape which leads to him almost killing his wife but inevitably decides to kill himself.

Another notable short story is called A Dance of Blossoms which dealt with themes about climate change, environmental calamity and desolation with no one caring about nature's slow death. I am also known for my Nightmares and Demons anthology of short horror stories that had a few people citing me as having the mind of Stephen King and yet the writing style and narrative based imagination that is entirely my own. I'm also working on Damnation which is a novel based on Dante Aligihieri's Divine Comedy and adds a modern spin on it along with another three short story anthologies called Apocalypto, Darkwatchers and a sequel to Nightmares and Demons called Nightmares and Demons: Grimm which adds my horror flavour to twisted retellings of specific tales by the Brothers Grimm. These stories I've posted to my personal collection on Storywrite for others to see which can be found here http://storywrite.com/stories/by/Hayden%20Dutton?page=2

I'm also a professional actor playing roles in the greek plays Antigone and Medea along with productions of A Midsummer Night's Dream - Revised, Grimm Tales and a school production of Realism dealing with themes of depression, violence, sexual desires and others. I also work with the Australian Theatre Company Shake & Stir.

Among this I'm also the creator of an upcoming role-playing text-based narrative game called Khador Empires and a regular video game/book/music/film and television critic. I've been to Fiji and Thailand which were absolutely stunning locales and Fiji was so relaxing I literally didn't want to leave and riding elephants in Thailand along with canoeing in the ocean around caves and islands particularly the infamous James Bond Island from Ian Fleming's 007 Man With The Golden Gun. I'm Australian but I descend from Spanish heritage (Dad's side) so technically I'm Australian/Spanish. I can speak German and partially Japanese and an avid lover of many types of food and love going to restaurants weekly.

I am a massive fan of A Song of Ice and Fire by George R.R Martin and its equally amazing tv series by HBO called Game of Thrones and also The Walking Dead, Vikings, Good Game and American Horror Story. I love all kinds of music by Coldplay, Imagine Dragons, One Republic, Linkin Park, Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, Lana Del Rey, Katy Perry, Beyonce, Ed Sheeran, Michael Jackson, Of Monsters and Men, Peking Duk, P!nk, Adele, Birdy and Lorde.

Cirque Du Soleil is one of my absolute favourite circus troupes as they mix physical theatrics the beauteous imagination of art and chemistry along with circus into a stunning blend. I like going to see plays and musicals frequently with my favourites being The Rocky Horror Show, Les Miserables, Wicked, Phantom of the Opera and Jesus Christ Superstar.

I have to admit that I'm an anime fan and love Vampire Knight, Death Note, Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Bleach, Naruto, One Piece, Blood - C, Fullmetal Alchemist, Kamisama Hajimameshita, Black Butler and a few others.

I'm not easily scared of horror films or video games as I know every cliche in the book however when I found exceptions I absolutely love it. The only few games that have done this have been Outlast, The Silent Hill Series (namely 2, 4 and Homecoming) Slender: The Arrival and The Amnesia Series. And the only two films that has ever scared me has been Stephen King's It and The Conjuring which just built up tension all the way through and will forever make me hate Porcelean Dolls, damn are they creepy.

Well this is me, a quarter of life at least :)

"It is not our part to master all the tides of the world, but to do what is in us for the succour of those years wherein we are set, uprooting the evil in the fields that we know, so that those who live after may clean Earth to till. What weather they shall have is not ours to rule."
