Bloemhof was born in the town of Paarl in the Cape Province, South Africa. In 1991 he won the De Kat Prize for Die Nag Het Net Een Oog, a Gothic novel set in a small rural community.
Bloemhof's adult work contains thriller, supernatural and more conventional dramatic elements. He has also written a secret agent (Rooi Luiperd) series as well as one starring a female detective, Alma van der Pool, the screenplay Double Echo, stage plays and radio dramas and serials. He also writes for teenagers.
