The Tell-Tale Heart by Edgar Allan Poe
This hair-raising collection presents some of Edgar Allan Poe's most ingenious and gripping tales, notably The Tell-Tale Heart, in which the guilt-ridden narrator recounts his compulsion to commit murder.Other captivating stories include The Fall of the House of Usher, concerning a most unnerving visit to the home of an old friend; The Cask of Amontillado, a parable of an attempt at revenge that goes way too far; The Murders in the Rue Morgue, the forerunner of modern detective fiction, starring a sleuth even cleverer than Sherlock Holmes; and other riveting yarns: The Pit and the Pendulum, Ligeia, William Wilson, The Masque of the Red Death, The Black Cat, and The Purloined Letter. Lovers of strange and mind-bending fiction will delight in these classic tales by Poe, the creator of the American Gothic horror story and one of the greatest masters of suspense.
