In a specially adapted version for young readers by Marjorie P. Katz
In these uncanny tales of madness, revenge, love, and deduction, you will enter into the eerie world created by Edgar Allan Poe. The unforgetable characters of this master story-teller come vividly, chillingly to life before your eyes. You will hear the pounding of a dead man's heart... listen to a man's cry of terror as he is being buried alive... see the phantom figure of a young woman rise from the dead... and follow every step as a secret code is deciphered and a pirate treasure retrieved from the earth.
