Rachel Harrison has quickly established herself as one of THE defining voices of the horror genre. She exploded onto the scene several years ago with her terrifying and unnerving debut The Return before following that up with the equally spooky Cackle. Both books were not only atmospheric and gothic, but they also were extremely well written, the pages flying by. Her newest book, Such Sharp Teeth, does the same. If you're a fan of werewolf books (and who isn't!) it's a must read.

Rachel has a spent her life seemingly preparing to write scary books with shocking plot twists, given her obsession with The Twilight Zone. In this episode, Adam and Rachel discuss her introduction to the classic TV series, get into the history of why the show was so groundbreaking, and how she's spent her career trying to write stories like Rod Serling.
