Manuscript Found in a Bottle

Written by Edgar Allan Poe

Narrated by Larry G. Jones

Poe’s characters often take turns for the worse, and this is the literal case in this shipwreck story by the author. Aboard a ship taking off from Indonesia, the narrator’s ship and crew is struck by a storm that kills everyone but the narrator and one other crewmember. As the ship sales on under the enchantment of the storm, it collides with another seemingly enchanted object – a large, black galleon crewed by blind men. The narrator keeps a ship’s log while aboard, and is forced to abandon it over the side of the ship with the hopes of someone reading it someday – as terror takes its final toll.
