author Grady Hendrix takes on the haunted house in a thrilling new novel that explores the way your past—and your family—can haunt you like nothing else. When Louise finds out her parents have died, she dreads going home. She doesn’t want to leave her daughter with her ex and fly to Charleston. She doesn’t want to deal with her family home, stuffed to the rafters with the remnants of her father’s academic career and her mother’s lifelong obsession with puppets and dolls. She doesn’t want to learn how to live without the two people who knew and loved her best in the world. Most of all, she doesn’t want to deal with her brother, Mark, who never left their hometown, gets fired from one job after another, and resents her success. Unfortunately, she’ll need his help to get the house ready for sale because it’ll take more than some new paint on the walls and clearing out a lifetime of memories to get this place on the market. But some houses don’t want to be sold, and their home has other plans for both of them… Like his novels The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires and The Final Girl Support Group , How to Sell a Haunted House is classic Hendrix: equal parts heartfelt and terrifying—a gripping new read from "the horror master" ( USA Today )Episode thirteen

ghost hunting reality TV crew into a world they could never have imagined. Fade to Black is the newest hit ghost hunting reality TV show. Led by husband and wife team Matt and Claire Kirklin, it delivers weekly hauntings investigated by a dedicated team of ghost hunting experts. Episode Thirteen takes them to every ghost hunter's holy grail: the Paranormal Research Foundation. This brooding, derelict mansion holds secrets and clues about bizarre experiments that took place there in the 1970s. It's also famously haunted, and the team hopes their scientific techniques and high tech gear will prove it. But as the house begins to reveal itself to them, proof of an afterlife might not be everything Matt dreamed of. A story told in broken pieces, in tapes, journals, and correspondence, this is the story of Episode Thirteen—and how everything went terribly, horribly wrong. "An epistolary descent into a living nightmare . . . well-written and genuinely unsettling. Fans of paranormal documentaries, ghost-hunting shows, and found-footage horror will lose their minds over this one." —Kealan Patrick Burke, Bram Stoker Award winning author of Kin "A beautiful Russian doll of a story... Episode Thirteen hooks you, creeps you out, and then it overwhelms you. It's House of Leaves meets Haunting of Hill House, in all the best possible ways."—Peter Clines, NYT bestselling author of The Broken Room For more from Craig DiLouie, check out: The Children of Red Peak Our War One of UsAnamorphose: Nouvelle policière (Rouge)

Philippe Meunier se disait que son subconscient lui jouait des tours ; que la fatigue conjuguée à la vague ressemblance…
de quelqu'un se rendant au troisième le mettait dans l'erreur. C'était à cet étage-là que vivait encore le pauvre Émile, emmuré dans la tristesse de son veuvage... Qu'est-ce que signifiait ce micmac ? Pourquoi Henriette hantait-elle soudainement l'immeuble de ses va-et-vient incessants ? Le petit immeuble situé 16 rue des Clarisses renfermait décidément bien des secrets. Avec Anamorphose, Charlène Mauwls adopte le style de la littérature policière du 19ème siècle qui lui permet de mettre en mots la vie quotidienne de ses personnages, et nous plonge dans l'univers Hitchcockien des habitants de cet immeuble avec lesquels l'agent d'assurances Philippe Meunier a tissé des liens étroits. Le suspense monte à chaque étage, et la psychose gagne.... mais oui... pourquoi n'avait-il pas fait le rapprochement quand la réponse était là sous ses yeux ?Don't fear the reaper

Par Luis Jorge Boone. 2011
"This is a collection of haunting and breathtaking short stories. The characters are beings oppressed by their fears, tyrannized by…
their weaknesses, confused by their own dreams. An aura of death and delirium hovers over their lives forcing them to reveal the hidden boundaries of human nature. These stories inhabit the limits between reality and madness, between ordinary occurrences and unexpected coincidences. It is at these crossroads where the world becomes most unsettling and we are forced to evaluate our perceptions. Paranoia, lack of faith, obsession, panic, and psychosis are some of the forces that control the destinies of these protagonists. Luis Jorge Boone's cleanly-architectured prose conjures the great voices of Latin American short fiction and delivers them with a 21st century sensibility. This is a collection full of striking philosophical observations, brilliant twists, and disquieting images." -- Amazon.comThe Catacombs (World's scariest places #02)
