We founded Poltergeist in 2019 because we believe that people’s stories are their most important legacy. And we felt that they deserve to be more than just a factual record of events.
We are driven by a desire to present your story in your own unique voice, with a structure and style that will engage and compel your readers.
With Poltergeist, this isn’t just about setting down memories in a beautiful, hard-back book. It’s about crafting a narrative which will engage readers from start to finish.
Will graduated from Oxford with a double first class degree in English. After directing a world-tour of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, he continued to work as a theatre director in London for another year … curing him of his ambitions to be a direct theatre.
After a brief U-turn towards the bar – a move inspired by the Netflix drama Suits, which turns out not to be entirely representative of the world of law – he returned to writing.
Will has ghosted dozens of memoirs and non-fiction books, several of which have been commercially produced by leading publishers. His short form ghost-writing has been published in The Sunday Times, The Daily Telegraph and The Guardian. And he has written two screenplays, both of which have been optioned.
