The Fall of the House of Usher

A collection of classic novellas by Edgar Allan Poe — a master of mystique, psychological horror, and dark romanticism. Stories in the spirit of a gothic thriller about madness, fate, and confrontation with the unknown.


A crack cuts through the facade of the ancient mansion, as if heralding the doom of an ancient lineage. A sister buried alive scratches in the family crypt, while her brother slowly sinks into the abyss of madness. In Edgar Poe's world, the boundary between reality and nightmare blurs, yielding to fears from the depths of the subconscious.


Debates about what inspired the writer to create this classic of gothic literature continue to this day. Were they literary sources or a real Boston house? In any case, the story remains a landmark work of world horror literature.


The protagonist receives a letter from an old friend, Roderick Usher, who urgently requests him to come to his ancestral estate. Upon arrival, the guest discovers that both the house and its owner seem to be afflicted by a mysterious ailment… Is it not the one that will soon take the life of Lady Madeline, Usher's sister, shortly after his arrival?
