Rabbit chaser of fiction crossword clue

97 Down · WSJ Crossword, August 14, 2026 · 5 letters

Answer
ALICE
ALICE (5 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Rabbit chaser of fiction” is ALICE. It appears as 97 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of August 14, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “If I Were You” by Gary Larson & Amy Ensz, and it fills 5 squares running top to bottom from row 17, column 5 of the 21×21 grid.

The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with A and ends with E, and contains 3 vowels and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Friday puzzles are the Journal’s contest crosswords with a hidden meta answer, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
