Autor

William Jackson is known worldwide as a cult author of gay horror. He is famous for his cinematic prose, evoking the atmosphere of classic Amicus and Hammer horror films of the 1970s. His characters inhabit a homonormative world in stark contrast to the heteronormativity of so much horror narrative. His writing looks at oppression, the inherent seductiveness of evil and the corruption, or moral decay, often masked by beauty. He cites his influences as James Herbert, Dennis Wheatley and Fred Mustard Stewart.www.williamjackson.uk
