Jason Arnopp

Jason Arnopp is the author of the Orbit Books novel The Last Days Of Jack Sparks, which has been described as "a magnificent millennial nightmare" (Alan Moore), "scarier than watching The Exorcist in an abandoned asylum" (Sarah Lotz) and "The Omen for the social media age" (Christopher Brookmyre). He previously wrote and executive-produced the Lionsgate feature film Stormhouse and script-edited the Peter Mullan feature The Man Inside. He has also written for the worlds of Doctor Who (BBC), The Sarah Jane Adventures (BBC) and Friday The 13th (New Line Cinema). Arnopp has released two ebook-exclusive fiction titles: Beast In The Basement (a suspenseful, mind-blowing thriller) and A Sincere Warning About The Entity In Your Home (a chilling and groundbreaking short story set in YOUR home), plus the free short stories American Hoarder and Auto Rewind. In Arnopp's previous life as a rock journalist, he interviewed the likes of Bon Jovi, Metallica, Ozzy Osbourne and Guns N' Roses. He was once surrounded by angry guards holding semi-automatic weapons at The Vatican. His Slipknot biography, Slipknot: Inside The Sickness, Behind The Masks, was released in 2001 and is now available as a Kindle Edition. Arnopp has also written a guide to journalistic interviewing, entitled How To Interview Doctor Who, Ozzy Osbourne And Everyone Else, which is also out on Kindle. Author photo by Amy Terry.
