One of the world's finest actors, Christopher Lee (The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Count Dracula) is the perfect host for this series of short stories from Edgar Allan Poe. Universally known as the "Master of the Macabre," Poe set the standard for classic horror tales with grotesque imagery and superb plots. Full of untimely deaths, mutilation, fear, claustrophobia, agony and revenge, Poe's nightmarish visions and tortured soul vividly emerge in the following dramatizations:

The Fall Of The House Of Usher
The Oval Portrait
Berenice
The Black Cat
Ligeia
The Cask Of Amontillado
Mr. Valdemar
The Tell-Tale Heart
Morella
The Pit And The Pendulum
The Masque Of The Red Death, Parts One & Two
