Description
audible1 recording of Six Creepy Tales by Edgar Allan Poe.
Read by Phil Chenevert
Edgar Allan Poe has the genius to manipulate language so well that he could engage my imagination and get me terrified even though little was ‘done’ in the sense of horrible actions described. My imagination, under the power of his creepy words, conjured the atmosphere and amplified the scariness all by itself. In this recording I’ve chosen some of his stories that did this so well and succeed in leaving lingering hair raising memories with me to enjoy all through my life: The Telltale Heart; The Masque of the Red Death; The Black Cat; The Raven, the Casque of Amontillado and Berenice. I hope you enjoy listening to them as much as I did reading them. (Summary by phil chenevert)
