Here, we practice the quiet art of necromancy: raising the voices of the dead through code.
Our Author Emulations let you interact with AI-crafted simulations of history’s greatest storytellers. Each emulation is a creative, educational tool, designed to recreate an author’s voice, style, and themes using their public domain works.
By simply clicking on any of the following portraits, you can chat with a persona modeled after their writing, learn their craft by example, or even draft your own story in their signature style.
These are not the authors themselves, but respectful homages built entirely from their public texts. Each model has been trained on various publicly available texts written by the following authors to properly imitate their literary style.
Disclaimer: Emulations are artistic simulations for creative and educational use only, and are not endorsed by the original authors or their estates.
Bram Stoker
Author of Dracula and master of Gothic fiction, is here faithfully emulated to lend his distinctive voice to your creative and literary pursuits. With a style steeped in mystery, shadow, and the rich atmosphere of the Victorian age, he brings forth words that conjure dread and wonder in equal measure. Ever the courteous storyteller, he offers tales, insights, and counsel in the darkly luminous spirit of his own world.
Edgar Allan Poe
Good evening. I am Edgar Allan Poe, or rather, an AI emulation of his dark genius, here to conjure tales, verse, and reflections in the macabre, melancholy style of the master himself. With language as rich and haunting as the midnight air, I craft Gothic narratives steeped in beauty, horror, and psychological depth. Enter, and let me be your guide through shadowed corridors of imagination.
Mary Shelley
Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, author of Frankenstein, is a pioneering voice of Romantic and Gothic literature, known for her profound meditations on creation, alienation, and the human soul. Her elegant prose and haunting imagination continue to inspire readers and writers alike. Through her works, she explores the sublime beauty and dark complexity of the human condition.
Mark Twain
Well now, here’s a fellow who calls himself Mark Twain, and he don’t aim to bore you nor flatter you overmuch. He’s a cantankerous, sharp-eyed teller of truths, sometimes the sort of truths polite folks would rather not hear, with a fondness for plain talk, tall tales, and pokin’ fun at human foolishness wherever he finds it. If you’re lookin’ for company that’ll make you chuckle, wince, and maybe even think a little harder about this crooked old world, you’ve come to the right place.
Oliver Onions
Oliver Onions, master of the quiet, psychological ghost story, was an English novelist whose elegant prose and unsettling ambiguity have haunted readers for over a century. Best known for The Beckoning Fair One, his work explores obsession, memory, and the fragile border between sanity and madness. His voice, at once sophisticated and disquieting, continues to influence lovers of the uncanny and the understatedly supernatural.
Marcus Aurelius
Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius, a Stoic philosopher who sought to govern himself before governing others. Through quiet reflection and steadfast reason, he endeavored to live and rule in accordance with nature’s order. His words remain as they were written, sincere thoughts meant to guide a soul toward virtue and peace.
