Reviews for Gothic Tales of Terror
56 ratings3 reviews
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Table of Contents:
1 - “Gothic Tales Of Terror” - An Introduction
2 - “From The Dead” by Edith Nesbit
3 - “The Brute” by Joseph Conrad
4 - “The Cask Of Amontillardo” by Edgar Allan Poe
5 - “They” by Rudyard Kipling
6 - “The Black Cat” by Edgar Allan Poe - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5It's an interesting mix of stories that range from murder for revenge, ghost stories, demonic possession, death personified, etc. The book has a very brief introduction that highlights various aspects of Poe's life and it is one of the rare times that I actually wished for a longer introduction. Also each of the eight stories has a paragraph or two of introduction that includes interesting tidbits like who first published the story and what was going on in the time of Poe's life when it was published. If you don't like spoilers, I suggest reading the introductory paragraphs AFTER you read the stories.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5* The Cask of Amontillado - I think makes Poe so memorable is his vivid first-person accounts from the point of view of a killer.* Hop-Frog - Um. What is this man's obsession with orangutans?* MS. Found in a Bottle - Good suspense, but the ending confused me.* Ligeia - Didn't really go anywhere.* The Fall of the House of Usher - Not as interesting as his others, but good atmosphere.* William Wilson - Brilliant piece of horror.* The Masque of the Red Death - Meh. Weird for no reason and kind of boring.* The Imp of the Perverse - A strange little story on why we knowingly act not in our own interest - such as lying, procrastinating, drinking, and other things sure to get us into trouble - to explain a confession of murder.
