The Masque of the Red Death by Edgar Allan Poe

sirensfindings's review against another edition

dark mysterious tense medium-paced

4.5

I really loved all of the stories in this little collection, except for Ligeia. The Black Cat is my new favorite Poe of all time, it's horrific but ends SO well! All in all, a great way to end October.
