Arthur Ellis Award

**Arthur Ellis Awards** er en gruppe canadiske litteraturpriser som hvert år deles ut av Crime Writers of Canada for de beste canadiske bøker innen sjangerne detektiv- og kriminallitteratur.

Prisene er oppkalt etter Arthur Ellis, pseudonymet for Canadas offisielle bøddel. Prisstatuetten er en tremodell av en hengt mann. Armer og bein beveger seg når man drar i repet til statuetten.
