11/03/22 - I'm currently at work on three different horror films. They're all rather exciting. I'll release details as soon as I'm able, though that may not be for a while. Oh, the suspense of it.
12/01/22 - I'm delighted to be Mike Muncer's guest on the latest Evolution of Horror Patreon. Together we discuss one of my favourite actors, the sublime Vincent Price, and in one of my favourite films, the equally sublime Theatre of Blood (1973). Click here to find out how to listen.
05/11/21 - I'm delighted to announce a raft of Dickensian theatre ventures to see out 2021. On 27th and 28th November, I'll be giving four performances of A Christmas Carol at the atmospheric Lady Waterford Hall in Ford, Northumberland. From 2nd to 13th December, I'll be reprising A Christmas Carol at York Medical Society, together with one-off showings of The Chimes and The Haunted Man. Then, from 15th to 23rd December, I'll be giving all three ghost stories in rotation at London's Charles Dickens Museum. All the relevant tickets links are included below.

20/08/20 - All involved continue to be stunned by the global reception to Host on Shudder. Amongst our plethora of press coverage (not least in The New York Times and The Guardian), Anton Bitel has noted 'a mischievously malevolent spirit (played by Frankenstein's Creature himself, James Swanton)', Kevin Lyons has remarked on 'Swanton's brief but highly effective appearance as the malevolent spirit' and Kim Newman has saluted our 'gurning phantoms' (it's what I do). Other laurels? My portrait's been done in pastels (you can even purchase it); I've been turned into a teddy; and Mike Muncer of The Evolution of Horror says that I'm 'the next Hugh Grant' (I kid you not; skip to the twenty-seventh minute). Rarely has an actor been so rewarded for appearing so little.
