About this listen

The Fall of the House of Usher is a short story by Edgar Allan Poe, first published in 1839. It recently gave its title to an eight-part TV series. The series interweaves adaptations of Poe's various short stories, also drawing inspiration from The Masque of the Red Death, Murder in the Rue Morgue and The Raven.

The Fall of the House of Usher, like many of Poe's stories, blends Gothic horror, psychology, and symbolism to explore themes of madness, decay, fear and death. Through the description of the House of Usher, its inhabitants, and the mysterious events that take place there, Poe plunges us into an oppressive, unsettling atmosphere, where architecture and the human psyche are mystically linked.
