Classic Edgar Allan Poe, but more disturbing than most of his writings.

4.5

One of Poe's best very short stories taking great advantage of his ability to paint a grim scene with words, Poe explores the mind of a man's descent into evil and grimly plays with irony resulting in a darkly entertaining experience.
