Extract of Floods, by Marc-André Pilon

As soon as she moves into the old ancestral home acquired by her father and stepmother in Vaudreuil-Dorion, Laurie senses that something is wrong. Her cat disappears, her half-brother cries all the time, her brother isolates himself. And then there is this dismal partially flooded basement and this locked room upstairs from which an unexplained cold emanates. So what happened in this house? By giving life to a ghost with a rotten body, devilish twins and an aggressive father, Marc-André Pilon is betting on sure values ​​in the world of horror. A terribly effective formula.

Extract of Doctor RIP, volume 3 – It’s deadly, by Michel Quintin and Freg

Death is the only certainty in life, they say. The manner in which we die, on the other hand, can sometimes be surprising. In the company of his guinea pig Darwin, Doctor RIP presents, with supporting statistics, unusual ways of perishing: an American who died from having eaten too much liquorice, a linesman killed during a tennis match or even a amateur superhero who crashed at the foot of the Eiffel Tower. It’s informative, funny, if a bit macabre.
