A French book analyzing the Silent Hill series with a preface by Roger Avery the screenwriter for Silent Hill 2006. I really love the cover!

Silent Hill, a name with multiple evocations. First of all, a series of horror video games that stood out for a radical, trying and fascinating approach to fear.

Silent Hill is also a city. A full-fledged character, theater of unspeakable anxieties and a large-scale playground for artists whose taste for macabre and sordid borders on poetry.

Silent Hill is about memories, trauma, moments of intense emotion. An astonishing mixture of various extreme feelings, from the most total disgust to the most inconsolable sadness.

Silent Hill is plural. This book will reveal its many facets, explain the workings, the audacities, try to determine what makes it a work apart, unique.

Welcome to Silent Hill.
