Uilleam Whitedale

Uilleam Whitedale

Although he spent his formative years moving around the US, Uilleam Whitedale grew up primarily in El Paso, TX and resided there for over 30 years, steeping him in the local culture. A former skateboarder, Whitedale got involved in the punk rock/alternative music scene early in high school and was friends with and in bands with later members of At the Drive-In and The Mars Volta. While his musical tastes vary, he is a big fan of rockabilly, which almost serves as a metaphor for his overall style. A diehard horror and dystopian movie fan, he also dabbled in real effects and film for a short time. Whitedale's background in horror, combined with his degrees in philosophy and political science, heavily inform his world view and writing. In 2014, he relocated to northern New Jersey, where he had spent many of his formative years. He still laments the lack of authentic Mexican food. Whitedale's works are largely cross genre and tend to be speculative, but are, generally, grounded in psychological horror and dystopian themes.

Praise

"The Haunting of Sheila Lee is a masterfully told tragedy about a woman wrapped in a web of lies and deceit. A truly fresh take on classic haunting/horror tropes that will leave modern horror connoisseurs guessing until the very last page."

– Josh McGann

"This one kept me wondering what was really going on with the MC. When I thought I had it figured out… I didn’t. I thought it was a great take on a possession story." (The Haunting of Sheila Lee)

– Christy Nelson

"My emotions ran the gambit. Even when I thought I had figured it out, I hadn’t." (The Haunting of Sheila Lee)

– Laura Barnette
