About

Hi, I’m Bill Davidson, Scottish author of horror, fantasy and thrillers. The image below is from a Northern Frights Horror Con at the SEC in Glasgow. A great day, where I met many like-minded traders and authors.

Below that is another fantastic David Whitlam cover of a Dark Lane anthology. A Dark Lane Christmas, I have two stories in that one!

You can find my books on other pages in this site, including where to buy them. If you do, please review!

Around 100 of my short stories have been accepted for publication, including the ‘Veritable Queen of Horror Editors’ Ellen Datlow’s Best Horror of the Year, where I’m surrounded by horror royalty.

The photo below is from another Northern Frights horror con, this time in my home town of Dundee, where I was supported by a murder of glamorous and terrifying crows!

My reading tastes are varied, but if I had to choose two main influences they would be the King fella, Neil Gaiman and Elmore Leonard. If you are thinking, that’s more than two, what’s wrong with you? Who would you drop? Oh, and for a series of novels it’s got to be Patrick O’Brian.
