William Jackson is the author of four queer horror novels, a collection of short stories and two limited edition short form works. Often evoking the atmosphere of classic Hammer and Amicus horror films, his cinematic style has been described by Caroline Munro as ‘Hammer horror for the 21st Century’. His writing looks at oppression, the inherent seductiveness of evil and the corruption or moral decay often masked by beauty. He is currently the subject of a major research project into queer trauma fiction by Dr. Helena Bayne at the Hagen Center for the Humanities.
