Axelle has been a horror fan for as long as she can remember. Brought up on a steady diet of Stephen King novels and Universal monsters movies, she tried to introduce her friends to Halloween long before most people in her native Belgium had even heard of the holiday.

Axelle started out in the film industry as a Fangoria reporter, before writing an award-winning book on horror - It Lives Again! Horror Movies In The New Millennium -, acting in a host of genre features, and finally directing her first short - The Last Post, starring Jean Marsh - earlier this year.

This summer she also directed a one-minute short, Hooked, which despite being shot in 3 hours and costing $200, was picked up by FearNet.

She is set to direct her first feature in 2012.
