About me
Rachel Kitch is a mixed-race Thai American speculative horror author with a love of writing unsettling, creepy books that still have a spark of light.
Her debut horror novel THE FOREST BLEEDS comes out October 13th, 2026 from Union Square & Co. Ask her for an ARC - she might have one on hand, and if not, she's bringing goodies!
Rachel has her Masters in Design from the University of Pennsylvania and a Bachelors from West Virginia University. As a generation 1.5 immigrant, Rachel loves to blend her heritage and incorporate Thai and Appalachian folklore into her projects. When not writing, she can be found designing author brands and websites, or reading books on her Kindle that would kill a Victorian child.
