ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Traumatized as a child by the haunted house at the Minnesota State Fair, McKenzie Rae decided to take that fear and use it to write as many twisted, spooky, and mysterious tales as she could think of. As a result, she is still afraid of the dark, and some nights, she is convinced that a monster is under her bed. But that could just be her cat. Rae prefers to create fantasy worlds where anything can happen. The Dysfunctional Trilogy were the first three books she ever published. Since then, she has gone on to write even more chilling tales. With every book she writes, Rae brings the dark worlds in her imagination to life, and she invites all of you to explore them with her.

My Dark Passenger

Kevin Wolf is driving back to his hometown when he spots a teenage girl hitchhiking on a remote highway. Concerned for her safety, Wolf offers her a ride through the night, but the girl remains enigmatic, refusing to reveal her name, origin, or destination.

 

Strange occurrences unfold in her presence. She evades Wolf's attempts to involve the police, and her company disturbs everyone but him. Adults avoid her, children react with fear, and crows shadow her every step. Meanwhile, Wolf is plagued by recurring nightmares of a faceless figure driving his truck.

Their journey leads them unwittingly into a monster’s lair when they arrive at his hometown amidst a Halloween festival. It soon becomes clear that the girl harbors secrets that may endanger them both.

​

My Dark Passenger explores an eerie world where reality blurs with the unseen. A world that is inextricably linked with our own.

But new information may be forthcoming when podcasters, Ty and Waylon, score an interview with the infamous Violet Blaire. Through interviews and research, they’ll try to parse out what’s true, what’s exaggeration, and what’s outright false.
