Will Maclean

Originally from the Wirral, Will Maclean has been fascinated by ghost stories since he was a child, and has been writing them almost as long as he can remember. He's written for television professionally since 2006, during which time he's worked as scriptwriter for people as varied as Alexander Armstrong, Al Murray and Tracey Ullman.

As well as comedy, he's also written extensively for children's television, where he's been an integral part of writing teams that have picked up two BAFTAs and an International Emmy. He's also the co-author, along with James May, of the bestselling Man Lab Book of Usefulness, to tie in with the 2011 series.

He now lives in London with his wife and young daughter.
