The Weird and the Terrifying from Edgar Allan Poe

18 stories (mostly prose, one poem) illustrate the development of Poe's darker writing, which had an extraordinary influence on speculative fiction as a genre. Poe's genius was his ability to develop not only the weird plot, but to show the internal struggles of the characters themselves.

The stories included are: Metzengerstein, Berenice, Morella, Shadow—A Parable, Ligeia, The Fall of the House of Usher, William Wilson, The Man of the Crowd, The Masque of the Red Death, The Oval Portrait, The Pit and the Pendulum, The Black Cat, The Tell-Tale Heart, The Premature Burial, The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar, The Imp of the Perverse, The Raven, and The Cask of Amontillado.
