Odd selection

'The tell-tale heart' was enjoyable in a campfire story kind of way. Another reviewer suggests these stories should be "read out loud" and I agree that this particular story would benefit, particularly if the storyteller makes for a convincing madman.
'The Masque of the Red Death' did not appeal at all. I found it a bit silly what with all the coloured chambers and the masked figure. I felt it was very dated and pointless.
'The Raven' is one of my favourite poems and I was happy to see it in the final installment of the 3 Short Reads.
