William Wayne is the author of The Fogkeeper Chronicles, a psychological horror series that blends eerie suspense with existential dread. Drawing readers into worlds where memory fades, maps lie, and the sea itself watches, Wayne crafts stories that linger long after the final page—haunting, hypnotic, and deeply human.

Specializing in atmospheric thrillers with supernatural undertones, his work explores themes such as the unreliability of memory, the horror of forgotten histories, and the inescapable pull of transformation. Each story is steeped in liminal spaces and emotional unease, where reality bends and survival leaves its mark.

Wayne’s influences range from the cosmic dread of H.P. Lovecraft to the small-town terrors of Stephen King, as well as the literary unease of Shirley Jackson, Caitlín R. Kiernan, and Jeff VanderMeer. He draws further inspiration from haunting cinematic tales like The Lighthouse, Silent Hill, and The Haunting of Hill House. His writing is immersive, lyrical, and layered—crafted for readers who find beauty in the terrifying and meaning in the mysterious.
