Luke Dumas is an author of psychological horror and thriller fiction. His debut novel A History of Fear (2022) examines the nature of fear through a dark psychological lens. The Paleontologist (2023) shifts to a museum setting where ancient horrors lurk beneath the surface of academic life.
His upcoming novel Nothing Tastes as Good (2026) expands his catalog further, and he has also contributed to The Big Bad Book of Kaiju (2026), an anthology featuring giant monster stories. Dumas writes with a focus on atmosphere and psychological tension, building unease through setting and character rather than relying on graphic content.
Readers who enjoy authors like Paul Tremblay or Catriona Ward will find Dumas working in similar territory, where the horror comes from the mind as much as from any external threat.
