Jack Townsend is a writer who got his start on Reddit’s r/NoSleep community, where his Tales from the Gas Station stories won Best Series of 2017 from the forum’s fourteen million subscribers. He turned those posts into a four-volume book series published between 2018 and 2022, and has since released two standalone novels.

His writing blends horror with dark comedy, following a night-shift gas station clerk named Jack who encounters increasingly bizarre and terrifying supernatural events at his remote workplace. The series has been translated into six languages and developed a dedicated fanbase that followed it from Reddit to print.
