Fiction

Step into the eerie, macabre world of Edgar Allan Poe's most atmospheric short story.

In this chilling gothic masterpiece, masked revelers confront a spectral embodiment of Death himself as a terrible plague rips through the population beyond the palace walls.

One of Poe's most enduringly popular stories, 'The Masque of the Red Death' blends symbolism, allegory and haunting imagery to turn the blood cold. This is Poe at his most vivid - and also his most sinister.
