[RickyRoro777]

I''m not really a fan of Poe, but I actually like this one. Nice job putting this all together.

[disneylandfreack]

ok so at the end the prince kills the man in the red costume who had the red death sickness and the man gave all the people the sickness and they all died?

[StrobieStudios]

@disneylandfreack Yup, pretty much.

[K1ng0fHearts99]

@StrobieStudios no There was a sharp cry -- and the dagger dropped gleaming upon the sable carpet, upon which, instantly afterwards, fell prostrate in death the Prince Prospero.

it says fell prince prospero not the red death \

[StrobieStudios]

@K1ng0fHearts99 Yes, you are correct. Prince Prospero (and everyone else in attendance) is killed by the red death. I guess I didn't read disneylandfreack's comment closely enough... ;)

[zusue2000]

I personaly love the story read aloud and i believe that this is a classic story

[StrobieStudios]

@zusue2000 Agreed. It's a good one.

[1upization]

Mrs Operska brought me here! :D

[MisWillo]

This is so awesome

I have a test on this tomorrow and I just could not sit down and re -read it

I love the story but my mind just would not focus

[hyakushiki23]

If you listened to this because you go to smc and have OBA as your professor thumb up.

[StrobieStudios]

@hyakushiki23 Glad to hear people are using it! :)

[arachnid55]

I cannot beleive it! You used the same exact tune to start your story as I used for my preview for my Red Death movie. I swear I did not plan this out!!!!!! This is a very strange coincidence!!!!!

[DarkWriter31]

Well done! Images really match the story. Music is interesting, kind of like an older radio production.

[StrobieStudios]

@DarkWriter31 Yup, that's what we were going for. We also do several old time radio type shows - The Watson Files and The Ark of Time. Check out our channel for those as well.

I wrote a thesis on this story in English story and my teacher really liked it so she read it to my class after reading other failed attempts by my class mates.....I was so happy. If Poe was listening I hope he was proud...My favorite author

[docbrox]

[asilom95]

[xXxAngelicKratosxXx]

This is amazing. Thank you so much for adding music in the background as well! Your voice and the music echo the atmosphere of the story. A+++++++++++!!!

[Raldage]

@xXxAngelicKratosxXx Awesome commentary... I hope you check out some of the other things too! The Watson Files and The Ark of Time are good fun times :)

[FUCJYOUBITCHSUCKER]

[StrobieStudios]

@FUCJYOUBITCHSUCKER Sure do. StrobieStudios . com

[FUCJYOUBITCHSUCKER]

@StrobieStudios sweet i will go check it out

[KxKfan]

Great job! I love it! We are reading this story in our English class, and our teacher played this video so that we could follow along in our books. It really helps with the visuals and the music matches perfectly.

[StrobieStudios]

@KxKfan That's really cool. I'm glad to hear it was useful for you. If you like Poe, you might enjoy our other stories of his we've done as well:

The Cask of Amontillado

A Descent into the Maelstrom

The Fall of the House of Usher (coming this weekend)

[Horror3000]

Thank you for making this video. I was planning on making a movie based around Poe's masque of the red death, and listening to the story again with such a creepy voice and style really got creative juices flowing

[StrobieStudios]

@Horror3000 Glad you enjoyed it. We've got some more Poe coming up in the next couple weeks to help get you in the mood.

[Raldage]

@Horror3000 I've never before thought of my voice as creepy, but in this case I suppose it's a compliment :)
