  • The Masque of the Red Death
  • Berenice
  • The Fall of the House of Usher
  • The Murders in the Rue Morgue
  • The Black Cat
  • The Pit and The Pendulum

Narrated by Jake Urry, each story has its place in the history of dark fiction, and went on to inspire authors including Dostoevsky, Arthur Conan Doyle, and Jules Verne.
