Growing up on shows like “Tales from the Crypt” and movies like “Jaws.” With such a morbid and dark interest Kristoff found it hard to make friends, he spent more time with animals then people.
Never knowing his father Kristoff was raised by his mother, Kristina M. Chester and grandparents, Wanda I. Chester and Clarence L. Chester. In 2001 Clarence passed away do to a heart attack.

After graduating Kristoff moved to Logansport, LA. With his sister, Tara Winchester and his brother in law Billy Winchester JR. it was here Kristoff started writing for work, getting on the best seller list on the amazon kindle with his short story "the hands"
