Stanley Jardine

Stanley Earl Jardine was an amateur writer of "post-modern, self-referential slasher horror."

He and Lauren Sedgewick were huge fans of Wilson Taylor and his Tommy Taylor series. Both attended the "The Legacy of Frankenstein" group session and the writer's workshop, organized by the Prometheus Event Management, at the Villa Diodati, coincidentally the same week Wilson's son and Tommy's namesake Tom Taylor went there. During a short break from the group session, he and Lauren tried to approach Tom, only to be turned away. He later went out to smoke a joint and was joined in the tool shed by a stranger who later struck him with a sickle. He was able to make it back to the house, followed closely by his killer, before he died in front of the other writers.
