Lucienne
LeBeau

Stories that live on the fragile line between the ordinary and the uncanny — where fear, belief, and endurance become the only compass.

About

The writer
behind the shadows

Lucienne LeBeau is a New York-born, Atlanta-based author and actor whose work spans horror, mystery, and suspense. Her eight published books draw on an intimate understanding of what people fear, what they believe, and how they endure — questions she spent years exploring as a supervised mental health counsellor.

That clinical past lives in her fiction: her characters navigate the psychological fault lines between sanity and obsession, faith and dread, the explainable and the irreducibly strange. She is drawn, again and again, to the moment before understanding arrives — and what people do in that uncertain space.

When she isn't writing or on set, LeBeau can be found discussing horror fiction, turning over life's largest questions, and spending time with her spouse and cats.

Film & Acting

On screen,
in character

Credited Film Debut · Role: Officer Shannon

DECAY

LeBeau made her credited film debut as Officer Shannon in DECAY, bringing to the screen the same psychological precision that defines her fiction — the kind of character who carries the weight of what she's seen, and what she's chosen not to see.

Her background in mental health counselling informs her approach to performance: she builds from the inside out, locating the existential fracture that makes a character human before considering anything else.

The Ordinary as the Uncanny

Add your post excerpt here. The most frightening things in fiction are not monsters but recognitions — the moment you see yourself in someone you'd rather not.

On the Psychology of Suspense
