Rebecca Sheen’s fascination with the dark corners of the human mind began in the heart of New York City, where she grew up surrounded by chaos, culture, and constant motion. Her early obsession with crime-solving and the psychology behind human behavior led her to pursue a degree in Forensic Psychology at NYU, followed by an MPhil in Psychodiagnostic Testing in Pennsylvania.
Though she began her writing career crafting eerie horror-thrillers for younger readers, Rebecca’s creative compass has shifted. Her latest work dives into the raw, emotional grit of post-apocalyptic survival, dystopian collapse, and the scars people carry when the world falls apart. Driven by real human fears and psychological truths, her stories dig deep—asking not just who survives, but what survives of us when everything else is gone.
She shares her love of all things unsettling with her husband and daughter—together, they binge true crime documentaries like some families watch sitcoms, and battle it out over long board game nights. A lifelong lover of art, theater, and anything with claws or paws, Rebecca also devotes time to her local animal rescue center, where she and her daughter have been volunteers since toddlerhood.
The Sheen household is a chaotic and loving menagerie: three dogs—Valjean, Elpheba, and Lollipop—and two cats, Inky and Binky, who have a habit of bringing unexpected strays to dinner.
With her pulse on psychology and a heart that beats for both animals and apocalypse, Rebecca Sheen writes stories that are raw, haunting, and impossible to put down.
