Edgar Allan Poe is the father of modern horror. Edited by Andrew Barger, this annotated and illustrated edition of the entire stories of Edgar Allan Poe brings Poe to life as never before. It contains a great foreword, annotations, word definitions, foreign language translations, and background information about Poe's stories that provide insight into their underlying meaning.

Photographs of Poe's many loves and the literary figures he satired in his stories are included. The timeless artwork of Harry Clarke one of Poe's best illustrators is also provided.

The book contains the little-known Poe tales: "[The Bloodhounds]," "Morning on the Wissahiccon," "[The Rats of Park Theatre]," and "Some Secrets of the Magazine Prison House." Here is but a sampling of the other remarkable Poe stories included: "The Black Cat," "The Cask of Amontillado," "The Conqueror Worm," "A Descent into the Maelstrom," "The Fall of the House of Usher," "The Gold-Bug," "The Masque of the Red Death," "MS. Found in a Bottle," "Murders in the Rue Morgue," "The Oblong Box," "The Pit and the Pendulum," "The Premature Burial," "The Purloined Letter," "Some Secrets of the Magazine Prison House," "Some Words with a Mummy," "The Swiss Bell-Ringers," "The System of Doctor Tarr and Professor Fether," "The Tell-Tale Heart," and "Thou Art the Man."
