What to expect

"The soul should be elevated by the ideal, the beautiful, the sublime."
This definitive collection of stories and poetry draws us into the haunting imagination of Edgar Allan Poe and displays his wide-ranging talent—from the macabre to the melancholic, the mysterious to the metaphysical. A master of gothic romanticism, Poe crafts suspenseful narratives and haunting verse that explores the darker side of the human psyche, where hearts beat beneath floorboards and beauty is tinged with dread.
Some of the 100 plus stories and poems included here are:


  • A Descent into the Maelstrom
  • Eleonora
  • Hop-Frog
  • Ligeia
  • The Black Cat
  • The Cask of Amontillado

Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849) was an American writer, poet, editor and literary critic known for his dark, atmospheric tales and haunting poetry. Widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in American literature, Poe helped shape the horror and science-fiction genres and is widely credited with inventing detective fiction in his 1841 short story, Murders in the Rue Morgue. Despite a life marked by personal tragedy and financial hardship, Poe produced a number of enduring classics such as The Raven, The Tell-Tale Heart, and The Fall of the House of Usher, and since his somewhat mysterious death, he and his writings have had a wide-ranging influence in popular culture. In 1946, the Mystery Writers of America established the annual Edgar award, which honour the best in mystery fiction, non-fiction and film.
