Author Information

On the day William Burns was born, crucial scenes for both The Exorcist and The Wicker Man were being filmed, forever marking him as a member of the Haunted Generation. The strange, the eerie, the unsettling, and the obscure have bedevilled him ever since. In search of lost futures, he has stumbled upon many forgotten ghosts and shadowy remembrances. Ghost of an Idea: Hauntology, Folk Horror, and the Spectre of Nostalgia is the culmination of a journey that began in Burns' 2016 book, The Thrill of Repulsion: Excursions into Horror Culture.
