Welcome to Ferenbrooke

Ferenbrooke is a medium-sized town somewhere in the East of England, not far from the East Midlands. It has a vaguely defined population and location, and is home to many notable anomalies and regrettable discoveries. A university town, it attracts a wide variety of students from all the world's dark places. The natives live in fear of the next time the graduate students in the physics department get a little excitable.

In another context, Ferenbrooke is a setting in which I place most of my horror stories. It's part Cambridge (my home town), part Arkham (of Lovecraft Mythos fame). If you like horror with a little occult strangeness and a dash of sci-fi, you might enjoy my work. Most of it is here, free for anyone who wants it.

But first, a word of caution. This site is written for mature readers and will contain horror and violence and bad language. Content warnings for specific stories are supplied on a best-effort basis. Shoot me an email if you feel I've missed something and I'll correct it as soon as possible.

That said, please do explore. I'm writing and adding to the site very regularly, so if you pop back in a couple of weeks there will surely be something new. There's an RSS feed if you want to be kept updated (and are the kind of nerd like me who still uses RSS feeds).

Happy reading.
