One of my favourites so far. A really well-crafted short story, and the ambience gave me off vibes of The Stranger or the ending of The Red and the Black which I quite enjoy. Poe’s stories are definitely well-written in the sense that it really takes you to the place of the story and makes you feel that tension the character is facing. Anyways I love this scary style so it’s a yes for me regarding the plot and genre. I need to dig deeper concerning symbols etc. though

HERMOSO, qué maravilla de narrador es Poe. Este cuento se fue a mis favoritos, logra transmitir el miedo a no saber qué mierda está pasando, qué mierda va a pasar conmigo, lo único que se sabe es que se va a sufrir. Disfruté cada frase, grande señor Edgar.

Hace más de 20 años que no leía los cuentos de Poe y, aún pasadas las décadas, conservan el terror, la maldad y el suspenso que me impresionó hace tanto tiempo. Cada historia te afecta psicológicamente de una forma exquisita.
