A family curse, bloody madness, inevitable fate, and the eerie atmosphere of the Gothic era all blend together in the terrifying stories of Edgar Allan Poe, the master of horror.
Open the pages of this book and you'll find yourself on the other side of reality, in a world filled with dark and tragic events. Here you'll step into the cursed mansion of the Escher family, see the underbelly of a morbid obsession, and hear of the sins of dark souls.
A piercing refrain, the fateful 'nevermore' rings out through the filigree translations of K.D. Balmont, L.I. Umanets, and M.N. Engelhardt, tightening the strangling noose of fate for the heroes of 'Scary Stories.'
