S.A. Sidor is an American author who writes horror, dark fantasy, and pulp adventure fiction. His original series include Booth City, a two-book crime noir set featuring Skin River (2004) and Bone Factory (2005), and The Institute for Singular Antiquities, a pulp adventure duology beginning with Fury From the Tomb (2018). The Institute books follow a team of occult investigators in the late 1800s as they recover dangerous supernatural artifacts.
Sidor is also one of the most prolific contributors to the Arkham Horror fiction line, the tie-in novel series based on the Lovecraftian board game. With over twenty Arkham Horror titles to his name spanning from 2011 to 2025, he has helped define the literary side of that universe. His contributions range from early entries like Ghouls of the Miskatonic to recent titles like The Nightmare Quest of April May and The Arcane Gamble of Harvey Walters.
His writing style draws heavily from pulp fiction traditions, with vivid action sequences and atmospheric settings that lean into the gothic and the grotesque. Beyond his series work, Sidor has published standalone novels including Pitch Dark and the game tie-in Death System: Zombicide Invader.
