Welcome to the Home of Author Ray Mark Dane
Ray Mark Dane writes from the fractured frontier where superstition, history, and the supernatural bleed into one another. His work dwells in the darker chambers of speculative fiction, shaped by a lifelong fascination with cursed legacies, abandoned records, and the quiet persistence of ancient evil.
Raised among the grey landscapes of England before drifting toward stranger paths, Ray’s earliest stories were written in the corners of forgotten cafés and shuttered rooms—places where shadows lean in and memory becomes unreliable. He grew captivated by the idea that some horrors never die; they merely wait for the right name, family, or century to reawaken them.
His novels explore brooding gothic dread, the fragility of innocence in the face of encroaching darkness, and the burden placed upon those who inherit the duty to confront what others cannot bear to see. Whether wandering through 1700s parishes thick with superstition, the haunted byways of Victorian Britain, or the liminal edges of the modern uncanny, Ray writes with the steady hand of a man leafing through forbidden archives.
He is a chronicler of cursed histories, a keeper of atmospheric tales, and—some might say—a witness to shadows best left unremembered.
Ray Mark Dane continues to write from that threshold where past horrors echo into the present, and where fiction very nearly resembles truth.
