Christopher Kimball Bigelow

Growing up Mormon in the early 1980s, Bigelow escapes the religion's bland conformity by playing Dungeons & Dragons. After graduating in 1984, he dives into new wave and punk. During LSD trips, however, he starts sensing a threatening invisible dimension. Then Stephen King's post-apocalyptic novel The Stand gets him reconsidering good vs. evil.
