Erin Banks

Erin Banks is a Northern German-born author who began writing publicly on blogs such as CrimePiper, with a focus on True Crime and criminal psychology. Their nonfiction book, Ted Bundy: Examining the Unconfirmed Survivor Stories—also translated into German—grew out of that interest.

They love bending and blending genres and write for readers who enjoy darkly introspective postmodernist metafiction.

Their debut novel, ABOUT RAGE, is a psychological horror thriller drama centered on a female serial killer. It blends action-thriller pacing with forensic realism and emotionally charged, existential themes.

The book’s unnerving detail and psychological accuracy have led to some readers speculating that they are a serial killer who wrote it as a “duping delight diary.” (They’re not—unless autistic meticulousness counts as a criminal offense.)

They also co-wrote the original ABOUT RAGE soundtrack, available on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon, and YouTube.

Banks has contributed to several poetry, fantasy, and horror anthologies and wrote the foreword to Bruce LeMaster’s books Mentally Caged and The Wolf and the Killer Vol. II, which focus on abnormal psychology and mental healthcare in prison. They also provided a chapter for their mentor Kevin M. Sullivan's book, The Enigma of Ted Bundy.

They are currently working on the last part of the ABOUT RAGE trilogy. ABOUT-FACE is scheduled for publication in 2027.
