Klappentext
Biografische Anmerkung

A brand new supernatural graphic novel that is absolutely loaded with haunting visuals set in a misty isolated town off the coast of County Antrim. It's 1711, a woman with demons of her own - has begun a quest to root the evil out of her village. The stakes are real. The Devil is real. This is a spine-tingling feminist folktale of fear and faith set in Northern Ireland. Based on the successful history of Islandmagee witches by A. Sneddon, 'Possessed By the Devil: The Islandmagee Witches And Ireland's Only Mass Witchcraft Trial' (Dublin 2013).

He then founded ComicCity in 2015, a festival celebrating comics & creative arts, which ran until 2018. He previously worked extensively with schools and colleges teaching about art and illustration.

He has worked with numerous libraries, archives, museums, community, educational, and women's groups, and regularly appears on local and national TV and Radio, including BBC, ITV, TG4 and RTE. Between 2016 and 2021, he was historical consultant on the first 6 part series dedicated to Irish witchcraft, 'Diabhal Inti (The Devil's in Her), produced by Lagan Media. He is the President of Ireland's oldest professional historical society, Ulster Society for Irish Historical Studies.
