Edgar Allan Poe
This is a story from the Fall of the House of Usher collection.
The horrors of the Spanish Inquisition, with its dungeon of death, and the overhanging gloom on the House of Usher demonstrate unforgettably the unique imagination of Edgar Allan Poe. Unerringly, he touches upon some of our greatest nightmares: Premature burial, ghostly transformation, words from beyond the grave. Written in the 1840s, they have retained their power to shock and frighten even now.
Also in this collection of Poe's tales of mystery and imagination: "The Black Cat", "The Facts in the Case of M Valdemar", "The Cask of Amontillado", "Ligeia", "The Tell-Tale Heart", "The Masque of the Red Death", "The Premature Burial", and "The Raven".

AudioFile Earphones Award-winning narrator William Roberts begins this Edgar Allan Poe tale with an authoritative tone as the unnamed narrator of the story provides a rational-sounding description of his fear of being buried alive, a fear partly due to his catalepsy, a disorder that causes him to fall into death-like trances. However, as the narrator becomes more and more obsessed with his fear, Roberts unravels the narrator's confidence and gets at the heart of his paranoia. Roberts' descriptions of the narrator's nightmares are exceptionally memorable.
