Rachel Harrison is an award-winning and bestselling author of horror fiction that is best known for her debut novel “The Return.”
Earlier on she went to Emerson College where she got her degree in Writing for Television and Film. During her time there she wrote all manner of horror screenplays and learned to read Tarot cards.
Following her graduation, she got a job in publishing where she worked for a year before she moved on to work at a bank.
She published the Bram Stoker award-winning novel “The Return” in 2020. This would become a critically acclaimed novel and the achievement was even more remarkable given that it was her first novel.
She would follow her debut novel with several other titles that have just been as commercially and critically successful. She has also written short fiction that has appeared in the likes of Audible Original, Recommended Reading by Electric Literature, and Guernica.
She currently makes her home in New York where she lives with her husband and cat.
Growing up, Rachel Harrison had always had an obsession with the horror genre. For the longest time, she felt like the two childhood best friends in a romcom that were going to end up lovers, even though they tended to be very reluctant.
This was the relationship she had with horror fiction and while she could never admit to loving the genre since she was afraid of just about everything, she would eventually find herself going back to it.
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.
Rachel also loved to read horror fiction and has been heavily influenced by the preeminent authors of the genre. Some of her biggest influences include Shirley Jackson’s “The Haunting of Hill House” and Stephen King’s “The Shining.”
Other influences include Judy Blume’s “Summer Sisters” and Ann Patchett’s “Truth & Beauty.”
Even though Rachel Harrison would ultimately make his name with the publishing of “The Return,” this was not his first rodeo.
Before then, he had been penning short speculative fiction about characters that made dubious choices. Most of these works would ultimately be compiled into the anthology “Bad Dolls” that he published in 2022.
Harrison has said that he used to write his short fiction in between the drafting and editing of his long fiction manuscripts. While he had penned drafts before, it was after he was done writing “The Return” that he had a good feeling.
He took to the “PitDark Twitter Pitch” contest armed with four pitches and saw that “The Return” was getting a lot of attention. While out on a walk, he suddenly started getting requests for manuscripts from agents.
After working on several edits through an agent he met on Twitter, he finally became a published author in 2020.
Rachel Harrison’s “Cackle” is a frightening and darkly funny novel about a woman who is learning to deal with the world of witches.
All her life, Annie knew nothing but to play it safe but after she was unexpectedly dumped by her boyfriend she is seeking a fresh start. She takes up a teaching position and has to move from New York to a small village in the countryside.
She is stunned by the picturesque and perfect little town with its warm and friendly residents. She also has a dreamy apartment that is free of the oddly persistent spiders of her Manhattan apartment.
But then she meets the magnetic, beautiful and charming Sophie who is very much interested in being her friend. Her new friend wants her to start living for herself and stop apologizing.
Annie cannot help but gravitate toward Sophie as she desires to spend more time with her new friend even if most of the townsfolk see a little afraid of her. However, there are some things about her friend that have made her wary.
She seems to have an ageless and uncanny appearance and makes her home in an unearthly wooded place. She also seems to wield a certain paranormal power but she thinks she cannot be or could she?
“The Return” by Rachel Harrison tells the story of Julie who had gone missing two years back while on a hike on the rustic coast of Maine. Her friends had been heartbroken but after several months, they held a funeral even if Elise never believed Julie was gone forever.
While everyone is being sad at the funeral, Julie turns up but seems to be suffering from amnesia and cannot remember what had happened to her or where she had been. After she is reintegrated into her community, the women plan a weekend reunion in upstate New York at an up-and-coming boutique hotel.
They all travel separately but Elise arrives first. She immediately feels there is something bizarre about the eccentric hotel that is oddly disturbing. Once everyone has arrived they laugh and joke as they try to make the best of a very uncomfortable hotel.
Julie is lucky that most of her friends pick up from where they left off and soon it is like they had never been apart. But as the weekend progresses the girls begin to notice that Julie is not herself.
Rachel Harrison’s “Such Sharp Teeth” is the story of Rory Morris who is coming back to town to support Scarlet her sister who is pregnant and estranged from the kid’s father.
She is not thrilled that she has to go back but she thinks it is the right thing to do given her sister’s predicament. But like many people who move away from their hometown, it is always jarring when one gets back.
Trying to reintegrate herself into the community, she meets a lot of familiar faces including Ian who had almost become her boyfriend.
While heading home that evening, she hits something with her car and against all prudent advice gets out to check it out. She is viciously attacked but when she wakes up she finds she has amnesia.
The medics at the hospital believe she was attacked by a bear but she thinks it is something so crazy she knows no one will ever take her seriously.
After recovering from her wounds, she notices some wounds and was thinking it had all been a bad dream until the full moon arrives.
