Resumen del Editor

Universally acclaimed as the maestro of horror and the morbid, Edgar Allan Poe's dark gift has for more than a century and a half set the standard for the genre.

Included are The Tell-Tale Heart, The Pit and the Pendulum, The Cask of Amontillado, The Fall of the House of Usher, Bells, The Gold Bug, and many more!

Reseñas de la Crítica

2000 Winner of Publishers Weekly Listen Up Award: Archival Reissue

"Superb renderings...[Vincent Price and Basil Rathbone] know this material well...and know how to make it chill the listener. It's a romp for them and a delight for us." (AudioFile)

Superior Poe!

There are many recordings of Poe's work -- ranging from the bland to the wildly overheated. This is the best, without paralell. Basil Rathbone and Vincent Price bring authority, wit and sensitivity to the tales and poems. These performers are not afraid to relish the juicy melodrama and they have the vocal equipment and training to make the language soar. I cannot recommend this highly enough. Oh, and by the way, the tales themselves are still scary, disturbing and haunting after all these years.

Love it

Both are great readers for the works of Poe, wish they would tell title of each story at the beginning

Utterly Unusable Formatting

As mentioned others--Price and Rathbone provide a masterful performance; however, the formatting is grossly unusable, especially to those not already intimately familiar with the works of Poe. I have little to add by way of content review...Poe's masterful. Copyright 2000 by Harper Collins Publishers, this performance is so poor that it makes you wonder how it could have lasted for 14 years and stupid people like me keep buying it.

Superb Narrations, but WHY NO TITLES?!

Such a classic author paired with pre-eminent actors in the macabre should rate perfection, but for some vexing reason unknown to me, none of the titles of the stories or poems are read before the tales themselves.

Vincent Price and Basil Rathbone are excellent

This was great, I love Vincent Price and Basil Rathbone. I'm keeping this one on my device so I can listen to it again.

So Good!!

The reading of these poems and short stories were amazing! the only thing that could make it better is a separation of each one as well as a title.

Lacking

Doesn't have a table of contents or chapter titles so it just goes straight into poems without any idea what's playing. The sound quality is quite low so I have to crank it loud to hear.
Dissapointed because the price point is a bit high for the quality.
Amazon is just lucky their voices are worth it.

love the classics

Where does The Edgar Allan Poe Audio Collection rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

right up there

What did you like best about this story?

I love a good classic, often off colored like Poe. It's nice for me to get lost in an afternoon with something different.

What about Vincent Price and Basil Rathbone ’s performance did you like?

Vincent Price brings the story to life. His voice makes the whole experience.

Damn, but the voices are creepy!

Vincent Price and Basil Rathbone are amazingly creepy! Mindblowingly disturbing voices combined with Poe's disturbing text and you have something to send chills up & down your spine. Perfect for Halloween.

Every Once in a While, You Need Classic

These recordings are awe-inspiring, really great performances. It's as if Poe was made for the stage, for the echo of the studio. I like to play this on Halloween and other dark occasions!
