The Mysteries of Harris Burdick is a 1984 picture book written by the American author Chris Van Allsburg.

It consists of a series of images, ostensibly created by Harris Burdick, a man who has mysteriously disappeared.

Each image is accompanied by a title and a single line of text, which encourage readers to create their own stories.

The short story "The House on Maple Street" which appears in Stephen King's Nightmares & Dreamscapes is inspired by the last image/caption in The Mysteries of Harris Burdick.

Walt Disney Pictures and 20th Century Fox announced in July 2019 that they have acquired the film rights to "The Mysteries of Harris Burdick" with Rafe Judkins as screenwriter and Mike Weber, Bill Teitler, Ted Field, Shawn Levy and Dan Cohen producing.
