This is a story from the Fall of the House of Usher collection. The horrors of the Spanish Inquisition, with its dungeon of death, and the overhanging gloom on the House of Usher demonstrate unforgettably the unique imagination of Edgar Allan Poe. Unerringly, he touches upon some of our greatest nightmares: Premature burial, ghostly transformation, words from beyond the grave. Written in the 1840s, they have retained their power to shock and frighten even now.

Edgar Allan Poe elevated the gothic story, developed the unreliable narrator, recast psychological terror, and reveled in both the horror and the supernal beauty of death. From Poe's rich, unrivaled imagination comes a collection of his most masterful works, including "The Black Cat", "The Fall of the House of Usher", and, of course, "The Tell-Tale Heart". Each story explores morbid themes of grief, greed, fear, and guilt, and together they embody Poe's grotesque obsessions...even the dread of being buried alive.

Masterpiece
To write a review of The Raven can be summed up in one word: PERFECTION
I remember the very first time I read this poem in school...I was spellbound. The narration offered here does an excellent job of capturing the essence of the eerie and troubling nature of Poe’s characters decent into heartbreaking madness over his tragic loss. The background enhancements are just right as is the music.
I highly recommend this rendition of this literary masterpiece.

Great Poem, great performance!!!!
The rhyme of this poem simply lulls you into hypnosis. So clever and direct. Its also very heartfelt. Showing how a man can become so heartbroken at the loss of his love that his sanity comes imto question.
Also the sound effects and background music are absolutely perfect!! So much so that I'm nlw looking for other dramatized works hoping for the same quality! Highly recommended!!!
