Folklore
I’m the Co-Owner of The Slaughtered Bird alongside my cousin The Blue Took.
I’m an artist, tattooist and huge film and comic buff.
I love all sorts of cinema from Horror to Drama, from Sci-Fi to Romance, There are literally too many movies I love that have made an impact on my life, but I’m most fond of old Hammer films and European Horror and the works of Dario Argento and Clive Barker.

I created The Slaughtered Bird alongside my cousin The Blue Took in late 2013. The site has gone from strength to strength drafting some superb guest writers and attending and sponsoring some of the UK’s best Horror conventions. One of our highlights being linking up with UK Horror Scene who have been a huge influence on our career.
I enjoy music by- Rob Zombie, Myrkur, Wolves in the Throne Room, Opeth, Killswitch Engage, The Doors and composers John Debney, Brunuhville, Graeme Revell, Hans Zimmer, Wagner and Mozart.
I love the writings of Alan Moore, Steve Niles, Garth Ennis, James O’Barr, Joe Hill and Bill Willingham. I enjoy the art of Bill Templesmith, Alex Ross, Mark Poole, Justin Hartman, Menton3, Jessie Smith & Tommy Lee Wendter.
