About the Show
Renowned as the ‘Godfather of Gothic Horror,’ Poe was a pioneer in establishing the horror genre. Although his works are nearly 200 years old, Edgar Allan Poe’s stories have stood the test of time and have inspired a countless number of horror writers.
This Halloween, using Poe’s original text from the 1840s, one actor faithfully brings his words to life on stage, performing four of the most terrifying examples of gothic literature: Act One: The Tell-Tale Heart and The Pit and the Pendulum. Act Two: The Black Cat and The Raven
