About the author

Rachel Rose is credited on a set of short, illustrated chapbooks published by Kodiak Books in 2020, including Horror in Washington, Horror in Maryland, and Haunted Playgrounds. Each title collects four brief regional ghost stories aimed at younger or reluctant readers, pairing local landmarks and settings with familiar horror tropes: shadowy figures, haunted waterways, and playgrounds that host more than swings and slides. The books are part of a series format rather than standalone literary works, built around quick, accessible storytelling rather than research or folklore scholarship. They suit readers looking for light, low-commitment spooky fiction, school and library collections building regional horror sections, or younger readers being introduced to the ghost-story genre through short, illustrated formats. No biographical information about the author is given in the catalogue beyond this series of titles.
