Nightfall with Edgar Allan Poe

Written by Eric Coble

Synopsis: Edgar Allan Poe stands alone in the flickering darkness of his mind, trying desperately to convince himself—and us—that he’s not mad. The spell he weaves brings us highly theatrical adaptations of four tales Poe himself considered his best: “The Raven,” “The Fall of the House of Usher,” “The Pit and the Pendulum,” and “The Tell-Tale Heart.” Enter the world of Poe and check your heartbeat at the door.
