ⓘ About Rachel Harrison

Rachel Harrison is an award-winning and bestselling author of horror fiction that is best known for her debut novel “The Return.” She currently makes her home in New York where she lives with her husband and cat. She still remembers watching “The Blair Witch Project” as an eleven or twelve-year-old girl. Her family had just moved into a new house in the woods that lacked any window dressing. She had tried to talk herself out of watching the horror movie but just could not. It was pure torture and agony trying to sleep but she had to give herself permission to scratch the itch for a very good movie. Even though Rachel Harrison would ultimately make his name with the publishing of “The Return,” this was not his first rodeo.
