Ten of the master's best and most terrifying tales are collected here in a superb volume that will delight lovers of mystery and the macabre. These marvelously crafted masterpieces are as spine-chilling today as when they first appeared, and the exquisite illustrations make this especially personal collection by Neil Waldman a volume to be treasured. Weird and shadowy drawings highlight the mystery and terror, bringing such tales as "The Pit and the Pendulum", "The Black Cat", and "The Cask of Amontillado" to life in ways that will haunt the imagination.
