Russell Lee is the pseudonym of the Singaporean authors of True Singapore Ghost Stories, a well-known book series of ghost stories in Singapore, Malaysia, other parts of Asia ever since the release of Book 1 in 1989.
The brand had a lasting impact on Singapore publishing. Their first release was the first of many that were published for the mass market. True Singapore Ghost Stories surpassed 30,000 copies in three months.
Despite publicly claiming to be a real person, Russell Lee never provided any photograph of himself nor revealed anything about his personal life. At book signing events for True Singapore Ghost Stories, a person claiming to be Russell Lee would always show up, wearing a mask and clothes that cover every inch of his body. Due to the improbability of not having any leaked details about his identity for decades, the universal consensus is that Russell Lee is a pseudonym, and an actor was hired to put on a mask and make public appearances for marketing purposes.
True Singapore Ghost Stories
As of 2023, 28 books in the True Singapore Ghost Stories series have been released. With over 1.5 million copies sold worldwide.
In 2014, True Singapore Ghost Stories 25th Year Special Edition was released, where it looked back at the first 25 years of the series.
Book 27, the latest in the series, was released in 2023. The authors expressed their hope to reach Book 50.
