Laura Holliday is a freelance journalist based in London, UK. Her work primarily covers the online world, especially internet mysteries and lost media, online communities, and digital true crime. Her reporting has appeared in Vice, Dazed, Wired, and The Daily Beast, as well as various indie mags.
In April 2024, she was interviewed for the Something Offbeat podcast about lostwave — ghost songs that nobody can identify, after a formerly unidentified song she wrote about ('Ulterior Motives') was discovered in a 1980s NSFW movie.
Her research and writing has also appeared on YouTube — including for Nexpo (Ballen Studios) and his audience of 3.6 million subscribers, as well as for other YouTubers on bespoke internet culture projects.
Laura's fave things include: classic Tomb Raider, liminal spaces, prestige TV, Black Country New Road, corporate horror, wandering through urban environments, iced coffee, and her cat. If she could describe herself in one word it would be: UNLOCK.
