Hi, I'm Dean. I use sound, design, animation, and a lot of imagination to create immersive ambient experiences that help you escape from the real world. The Dead of Night features original and unique ambient soundscapes that focus on the spooky, the magical, and the mysterious.
See my creative process here: youtu.be/M63RYNEsyGc
Software I use to create my ambient soundscapes:
Adobe Premiere Pro
GIMP
DP Animation
Audiotonic
Follow the channel on Instagram, where I post behind-the-scenes photos and videos, as well as more of my design and animation work: www.instagram.com/thedeadofnightambience/
I'm also a writer! The Dead of Night has given me the skills to create much better promotional material for my books. I'm hoping to bring my fictional worlds to life through ambience and animation in the future. If you want to find out more about my writing, visit my Twitter account: twitter.com/DeanColeWriter

Wishing everyone a wonderful Beltane this Friday! Thanks for your lovely messages. I'm fine. I'm writing a book and working on some other creative projects at the moment, so I haven't been able to make a new video for the channel, but I am hoping to make something soon. As there hasn't been any new videos for a while, I want to make sure it's something special!
I hope to have much more time at the end of summer to create new videos on a regular basis. Thanks for continuing to watch the videos, and for your patience. I hope you will enjoy the Beltane playlist in the meantime, which can be found in the playlist section.
Blessings,
Dean

What a beautiful film Practical Magic 2 is! The iconic house has been an inspiration for many of my witchy videos, and it looks gorgeous in the new trailer, especially the conservatory! 🌿✨
I'm really looking forward to watching it and seeing all that magical scenery. Have you seen the trailer? Will you be watching it in September?

Wishing you all a beautiful and joyful Ostara/Spring Equinox this weekend 🌷✨
I didn’t quite manage to create new videos for the festival this year, but I’d love for you to revisit last year’s collection if you feel called to — you can find everything in the Ostara playlist 🌿🥚🐇
Thank you, as always, for your kind views, comments, and support. It truly means more than I can say.
I’ll be back creating new videos as soon as life slows down a little… hopefully very soon.
With warmth,
Dean 🙏🕯️

I hope you'll forgive me for no new Imbolc videos this year. I've been busy with life and other projects over the last week, and I didn't want to rush anything before Feb 1st. Hopefully last year's videos will do for another year. A very blessed Imbolc to you all ☀️❄️🕯️🐑

I absolutely have to give a shoutout to Drew at Sinister Ambience for his latest Poltergeist ambience. He is a truly masterful creator, and this one is exceptional. If you love horror films or immersive, atmospheric ambience, you’re going to love this one!

The first video of 2026 is under way! We're returning to the Book of Shadows series with this one, and it's in 4K! The BoS videos are quite a bit of work, so I can't say when I'll be finished—but hopefully not too long now. I hope everyone in the NH is having a magical winter 🕯️🌙🌚🌕🙏
