Poe at his best

Kevin Theis does his usual wonderful job in this classic from Poe :)

I was given this book free at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

One of Edgar Allan Poe Dark Tale

A story of a man who is being tortured during the Spanish Inquisition. In this story, you feel the fear of this man during this dark time in history. A must listen to for Edgar Allan Poe fans and the narrator does a wonderful job narrating this tale.

Great Rendition

Mr. Theis’ voice was made to read Poe stories. He once again does a great job bringing voice the terror and fear that Poe so wonderfully wrote. This rendition includes sounds that further add to the creepiness of the story. It is a great addition to any Poe or horror collection.

Also, if you want to increase the terror…read it once, then read it again and slowly increase the speed of the narration as the story continues. Enjoy!

I was provided with a free copy of this audio book for my honest review. The views expressed here are entirely my own.

One of the best!

As a big fan of Poe, I was a little hesitant to listen to his classic.. I've always thought that My narration was good enough. But Mr. Theis does a great job bringing Poe's macabre details to light! Well done, Sir!

The Pit and the Pendulum

I love this story, always have. There is something about the way Poe wrote that draws me in and never gets old.

Excellent!

Outstanding production value, and superbly talented narrator! I highly recommend this for fans of Poe

Great Narration!

The Pit and the Pendulum is a classic tale of horror, one of Poe's best. This is my first time listening to the story instead of reading it, and the performance really lets you drink in every well placed word. This audio version is a dramatic read with subtle sound effects throughout. They really added to the story and became part of it. I listened to it in broad daylight and still had the shivers. Well done.

Dramatic and suspenseful

This is a short, powerfully told first-person narration. It is told from a perspective of stress, confusion, uncertainty. This narration captures that and brings the story to life in a way that makes it accessible and enjoyable - if frightening.

A peek inside the Spanish Inquisition

Awesome narration and sound effects for this short story showing the horrors of the Spanish Inquisition

A great short story

I love the narration and the sound of the pendulum. They make the story more real. You should lisen it!
