Daisy Pearce was born in Cornwall and grew up on a smallholding surrounded by hippies. She read The Hamlyn Book of Horror far too young and has been fascinated with the macabre ever since.

Daisy began writing short stories as a teenager and had her first short story 'The Black Prince' published in One Eye Grey magazine. In 2015 'The Silence' won a bursary with The Literary Consultancy and her short story, 'The Brook Witch', was performed on stage at the Small Story Cabaret in Lewes.

Daisy's debut novels The Silence and The Missing were published by Thomas & Mercer in 2020. Her third novel Something In The Walls was published in the US in 2025 and will soon be available in the UK. Daisy currently works in a library and hunts ghosts.
