A murderer driven to the edge by the sound of his victim’s still-beating heart…
A mental institution run by someone other than its staff…
A mysterious box aboard a ship, with a ghastly secret…
The Hypnotist’s stare that, perhaps, could paralyze even death…
Strap into your straightjacket and fasten it tight, for within these pages are stories of lost love, lost ways… and lost minds. A companion to Edgar Allan Poe’s Tales of Mystery and Madness, this second installment of perennial Poe favorites includes "The Tell-Tale Heart," "The System of Dr. Tarr and Professor Fether," "The Oblong Box," and "The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar." While the original stories have been nipped and tucked, the dread, the gore, and the horror still reach otherworldly heights thanks to Gris Grimly’s spine chilling visuals. Open the book… if you dare.
