About The Author

Russell Lee


WHEN Russell Lee’s True Singapore Ghost Stories Book 1 was launched in September 1989, it became an instant bestseller, chalking up mind-blowing sales of 30,000 books in two months. Now, 35 years later, Lee has compiled 27 other books and two Special Editions. Russell Lee is a household name in Singapore and Malaysia. His True Singapore Ghost Stories series has garnered readers across generations, cultures and territories.

The appearance of Russell Lee marked a watershed in Singapore’s literary development. For the first time in Singapore, the stories struck a chord with heartlanders, with voices, settings and storylines that were familiar.

Before Russell Lee, books in Singapore were considered bestsellers if they could achieve sales of 3,000 copies. The sales rate of Lee’s books sent hearts racing and observers gasping in disbelief.

Lee’s example has stoked other Singaporeans to put pen to paper. Authors now own their cultural identity and write with a distinctly Asian style, unencumbered by the strictures of language legacy. Books by Singaporeans for Singaporeans and about Singaporeans. They offer to the rest of the world an authentic experience of the Singapore heartbeat.

Meanwhile, Russell Lee remains anonymous, donning a mask every time he appears in public. We do know he’s Singaporean. He's definitely a real person and proudly says, “Every red blood cell of mine is imprinted with the five stars and crescent moon!”
