One of my favorite annual Halloween traditions, this is the 21st year, is listening from beginning to end the double cd of Poe poetry & stories read (performed really) by various actors & musicians. Highlights include Walken's "The Raven" (love Gaiman, but Walken's is the quintessential reading), Iggy Pop's "The Tell-Tale Heart", Diamanda Galas' "Black Cat" & Gabriel Byrne's "Masque of the Red Death". Memorable recordings of the #gothic master.
The quote is from Edgar Alan Poe, who wrote The Raven, The Tell-Tale Heart, The Fall of the House of Usher, The Cask of the Amontillado, The Murders in the Rue Morgue 🦇
