Timeline
Stephen Volk (born 3 July 1954) is a Welsh screenwriter and novelist who specializes in the horror genre.
Stephen Volk was born in Pontypridd, Wales on 3 July 1954.
Volk has stated his interest in horror was triggered by watching the TV drama The Stone Tape by Nigel Kneale, and the film Don't Look Now by Nicolas Roeg.
He studied at Lanchester Polytechnic in Coventry, and the University of Bristol.
Volk then worked as an advertising copywriter before becoming a full-time writer.
He wrote the screenplays for numerous horror films, including Ken Russell's Gothic (1986), The Kiss (1988), and William Friedkin's The Guardian (1990).
Volk's first produced work was Ken Russell's film Gothic in 1986.
Volk also wrote a script, Horror Movie, for Goldcrest Films that was never made due to Goldcrest's collapse.
In 1992, Volk wrote the teleplay for the BBC mockumentary Ghostwatch.
His most famous work is Ghostwatch, a controversial drama shown on BBC1 on Halloween 1992.
It is commonly misrepresented as a hoax documentary, but this was never the intention.
It was originally planned as a six-part series for the BBC.
However, the producer of the series, Ruth Baumgarten, didn't believe it had commercial viability.
Stephen reworked the script so that everything would be set "Like episode six" and repitched it as a 90-minute live broadcast drama on behalf of BBC's Screen One drama segment.
Ruth accepted the new format.
In 1995, Volk wrote two serials of the series Ghosts.
Other screenwriting credits include Octane (2003) and The Awakening (2011).
Volk's TV work often involves the supernatural and the paranormal, such as with the ITV1 thriller series Afterlife (2005–06).
Volk has written fiction in the horror and ghost story genres; some of these stories were collected in the book Dark Corners (2006).
Volk's fiction often features real people as characters: the novella Whitstable (2013) features the actor Peter Cushing, while Leytonstone (2015) deals with a young Alfred Hitchcock.
Volk's story "The Chapel of Unrest" was read on stage by actor Jim Broadbent at London's Bush Theatre in 2013.
He and his wife Patricia, who is a sculptor, live in Bradford-on-Avon, Wiltshire.
Volk also wrote a monthly column about horror for Black Static magazine until the end of 2016.
In 2018, Volk published The Dark Masters Trilogy, an omnibus featuring Whitstable and Leytonstone, as well as a new novella, Netherwood.
