Dillon Demaine

Dillon Demaine writes disturbing psychological, cosmic, and body horror where identity breaks down and nothing stays contained.

For years, Dillon Demaine wrote in private. Building worlds, towns, monsters, and stories long before a single title ever reached a bookshelf. It was only after encouragement from a close friend in independent publishing, and a simple question: “How many stories are you sitting on?” that he finally opened the vault.

What followed wasn’t a sudden burst of writing, but the release of years of dark fiction already waiting to be told.

Today, Dillon is the creator of The Hollowing Universe, writing literary, psychological, cosmic, and body horror where grief leaves scars, memory has teeth, and some things that should stay buried… don’t.

Nothing here stands alone. Stories bleed into one another. Some things follow.

If you’re drawn to slow-burn dread, creeping transformation, and the quiet sense that something is wrong beneath everything,

you’re already inside.

Start with Barnaby (Hollow Things Book 1) if you don't know where to dive in.

The bear is only the first sign.

Readers have called it literary horror with teeth.

But names don’t matter here. Only this:

The void is not empty. It is watching.

And sometime...

it smiles.
