Status Updates From The Fall of the House of Us...

murders in the rue morgue! i realized halfway that i did know how this story ended but im still glad i read it

ligeia was the last short story! sad, macabre, substance abuse aka new york’s hottest club

descent into the maelstrom - sick ass title, so so boring

poe LOVES to bury a bitch alive. i didn’t know there was legitimate public fascination with this though…victorians were crazy

masque of the red death + the oval portrait = back to back bangers

the pit and the pendulum was cool! not supernatural horror like his other stuff but a prisoner deprived of his senses trapped by a swinging pendulum scythe

one thing about poe is he loves to write men who bury people alive in walls - cask of amontillado asf

the black cat will ALWAYS trifle with terrible awful men make NO mistake

“All in vain; because Death, in approaching him had stalked with his black shadow before him, and enveloped the victim.”

i knew the premise of the tell tale heart but had never read it! read that line and said “yeah poe wrote that for sure dude”

i’ve decided to read one poe story a day from this collection. first one was the fall of the house of usher which was cool! i fear i don’t understand what this man is saying half the time but it certainly was creepy
