Stephen Volk (born 3 July 1954) is a Welsh screenwriter and novelist who specializes in the horror genre. He wrote the screenplays for numerous horror films, including Ken Russell’s Gothic (1986), The Kiss (1988), and William Friedkin’s The Guardian (1990). In 1992, Volk wrote the teleplay for the BBC mockumentary Ghostwatch. Other screenwriting credits include Octane (2003) and The Awakening (2011).
His most famous work is Ghostwatch, a controversial drama shown on BBC1 on Halloween 1992. It is commonly misrepresented as a hoax documentary, but this was never the intention. It was originally planned as a six-part series for the BBC. However, the producer of the series, Ruth Baumgarten, didn’t believe it had commercial viability. Stephen reworked the script so that everything would be set “Like episode six” and repitched it as a 90-minute live broadcast drama on behalf of BBC’s Screen One drama segment. Ruth accepted the new format.
