Gustave Dore's illustrations really elevate this poem, as they are beautiful, detailed, and layered. They add a more ominous atmosphere than can be achieved by just ones imagination in the case that you are a person who does not visualise things easily. The poem itself is also very dramatic and fun. Classic gothic stuff!!! 💜🌹
