“The longer I looked, the more disorienting it became.”
Step beyond the veil of the ordinary and into a realm where stories are not as they seem. 'The Grimoire of Forgotten Fairytales' beckons you into a world of ancient lore and enigmatic verses. From twisted nursery rhymes to cryptic riddles, each page is a key to a door yet unopened, a path yet untraveled. Will you heed the whispers of forgotten tales and unlock the secrets that lie within? Venture forth, if you dare, but remember: some doors, once opened, can never be closed.
A connected world of stories
Forgotten Fairytales is my storytelling universe, where nursery rhymes, old customs and familiar tales conceal something stranger. It brings together illustrated books, folk horror, eldritch mystery and full-cast audio drama.
The illustrated books
Explore The Grimoire of Forgotten Fairytales, The Tome of Terrible Truths and The Book of Bitter Ends: three collections of sinister rhymes, poetry, stories and riddles, written by William Moore and illustrated by Bethany Clark.
The Grimoire Diaries
A full-cast folk horror and urban fantasy audio drama set in the Forgotten Fairytales universe. Begin listening without having read the books.
I co-write the series with Alex Edwards, perform William, the narrator, and contribute composing, soundscaping and editing. The series is produced by Stone Fable, a separate creative company of which I am a director.
