About this audiobook
A tragic secret comes back to haunt the house of Usher forever after.
Author
Edgar Allan Poe
Edgar Allan Poe (1809–49) reigned unrivaled in his mastery of mystery during his lifetime and is now widely held to be a central figure of Romanticism and gothic horror in American literature. Born in Boston, he was orphaned at age three, was expelled from West Point for gambling, and later became a well-regarded literary critic and editor. The Raven, published in 1845, made Poe famous. He died in 1849 under what remain mysterious circumstances and is buried in Baltimore, Maryland.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Listening horror story audiobook was a bad idea, it was so scary.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5The narrator did his best but you gotta be of a very delicate disposition to be scared by this. There were sound effects that were there to try to enhance, if you were reading this you’d have to be really warped for your imagination to scare you, I’m afraid I found it to be pretty poor and about as scary as a starry night.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Dave Bradley is amazing as the reader! The version of the story is genuinely freaky.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The story is a masterpiece. Audio is clear and the narration is well paced. Sound effects are not too distracting. From start to finish this is just brilliant.
