Eleanor Catharine Price (1847 – 31 May 1933) was a British novelist.

Eleanor Catharine Price was born in 1847 in Bishop's Cleeve, the daughter of Thomas Edward Price. She contributed to a number of periodicals as a book reviewer and author, including The Spectator, The Monthly Packet, the Manchester Guardian, and London Society [1][2] She published numerous works: almost two dozen novels, including contemporary romances and historical fiction, biographies, and works for children. Her story "A Coachful of Ghosts" from the London Society 1877 Christmas Annual [3] was anthologized several times in the 19th century; Everett Bleiler dismissed it as "run-of-the-mill commercial fiction."[4]
