    “A couple years ago, the folks doing the show CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL sent me a very funny script in which I appeared, and they asked me to play myself. I explained that, given my acting ability, if I were to do this, it would be the 7th sign of the 7 signs of the apocalypse. I had to decline because I didn’t want to be responsible for the end of the world. So they hired an actor to play me. A lot of friends have told me that the actor is a more realistic Dean Koontz than I am.” Source: Facebook

Concerning the pseudonymous authorship of Invasion

When Stephen King first acknowledged that he used the pseudonym Richard Bachman, King fans went looking for additional pseudonyms that he may have used. One of the books that was thought to have been written by King was Invasion by Aaron Wolfe. It has since been clearly revealed that this was indeed written by Dean. The following articles and book chapters are relevant to this story:

Previous to Dean acknowledging he was Aaron Wolfe:

  • “Speculations” a chapter in Stephen King as Richard Bachman by Michael R. Collings
    Starmont House, Inc. / Borgo Press, 1985, p138-153

After Dean acknowledging he was Aaron Wolfe:
