This is an interesting retelling of four of Poe's most morbid tales: "The Tell-Tale Heart," "The System of Dr. Tarr and Professor Fether," "The Oblong Box," and "The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar."  Although not quite a graphic novel, the comic like illustrations that accompany the text add to the horror of these tales.
SUBJECTS:     Horror stories.
                        Short stories.
