edit data

David Frederick Douglas is an independent Irish author who now resides in Spain. His obsession with horror began at a young age when he first saw the movie Scream premiere on TV. He remembers recording it on VHS and wearing the tape out by rewatching that grisly opening scene with Drew Barrymore.

Drawing deeply from Irish history and folklore, David crafts stories he hopes are as unsettling as they are captivating.

For the Beast, He Awaits Me is his debut novella, and his next project is already underway and slated for release later in 2026.

Whalefall is a book which seems deliberately divisive. I can see why people loved it, and I can equally see why people hated it. I fell somewhere in the middle, and the side I leant more to alternated a million times back and forth as the story went ...more

Inigo and myself have similar tastes when it comes to our historical horror reads so once I heard this was gothic horror based in Georgian London, in two clicks it was in my basket and and in two seconds it was top of my TBR. The story is dripping in ...more
