About the author
Keith McCabe
19 books21 followersKeith McCabe writes at the crossroads of horror and humanity, where dread seeps into the cracks of the human experience and truth is often more terrifying than the monster. An American indie author, McCabe has built a body of work that’s as fearless as it is unsettling—stories that pulse with suspense, rage, and psychological fire. Influenced by the haunting precision of Peter Straub, the emotional brutality of Joyce Carol Oates, and the stark moral landscapes of modern noir, McCabe crafts tales where every shadow hides a secret and every sinner has their reason.
His novels span the spectrum of terror and mystery. In Rabbit King, a fever dream of psychological horror, McCabe dissects the art underworld where the mythical Rabbit King has reigned for centuries; a mysterious creature that determines which artists achieve fame in their lifetime or die penniless and forgotten. Director’s Cut turns a lens on obsession and morbid fandom in the world of underground filmmaking—where creativity and cruelty blur into a single, bloody performance. Pain Diary is an unflinching psychological thriller that reads like a confession from the edge of reason, a story about trauma’s long reach and the fragile architecture of identity.
McCabe’s Victims & Hunters takes a detour into history without losing his trademark grit—a sprawling historical crime novel set against a world of moral decay, vengeance, and fractured justice with a pioneer female investigator (Maryelaina Lemberg) at the helm. Here, McCabe fuses period detail with the tension of modern noir, proving that human corruption is timeless.
His supernatural Deb Dawson series (Jersey Graves, Jersey Gothic, Jersey Devils) extends his vision into a haunting mythos of cursed people and restless spirits featuring a reluctant New Jersey psychic (Deb Dawson) navigating the dangerous occult underworld. Through these works, McCabe explores America’s dark folklore and the ghosts we make for ourselves—both literal and psychological.
What ties McCabe’s stories together is not just their intensity, but their empathy—the sense that beneath every act of violence lies a yearning for something pure, something lost. His worlds are brutal, beautiful, and cinematic, written with the pulse of a thriller and the soul of literary fiction.
