Douglas Adam Ferguson

Douglas Ferguson was born in Brooklyn and raised in the South Bronx, a city kid through and through—shaped by the rhythm of corner stores, concrete stoops, and the stories whispered in subway cars. A veteran cinematographer by trade, Ferguson spent years behind the camera crafting striking, emotionally charged visuals. That same eye now guides his writing.

His debut novel, The Black Veil: A Lucien Crowe Mystery, blends supernatural noir with deeply grounded emotional truths—rooted in the streets of Harlem but haunted by generational shadows. Drawing on a lifetime of storytelling across screen and page, Ferguson's work centers the overlooked, the haunted, and the brave.

When he’s not writing or filming, Douglas is likely working out, diving into martial arts, or walking New York’s streets listening for the next story. He believes ghosts don’t just haunt people—they haunt places, legacies, and bloodlines.

And he writes like they’re watching.
