Edgar Allen Poe's Tales of Mystery and Madness

Four classic tales, "The Black Cat," "The Masque of the Red Death," "Hop Frog," and "The Fall of the House of Usher" by the master of classic horror and mystery Edgar Allen Poe, are retold for the younger set and accompanied by the spidery inked drawings of illustrator Gris Grimly. 

Throughout the telling of each tale, the myriad of drawings lend a graphic novel feel to this delightfully wicked horror collection. Warning! Not for flashlight readers! Be sure to keep your lights on :)
