Title: The Fall of the House of Usher Author: Edgar Allan Poe Narrator: Jonathan Dunne Original Publication: 1839 Public Domain: Yes Series Placement: Number 45 in the Timeless Terrors series Description: The Fall of the House of Usher by Edgar Allan Poe stands as one of the defining masterpieces of gothic horror — a tale where decay, madness, and the supernatural intertwine within the crumbling walls of a doomed mansion. When an unnamed narrator visits the melancholic Roderick Usher and his ailing sister Madeline, he becomes ensnared in a world where the line between reality and delusion dissolves, and the very house itself seems alive with a malignant sentience. Poe’s prose conjures an atmosphere of suffocating dread, exploring the collapse of body, mind, and bloodline. Every shadow, every whisper within the Usher estate echoes the inevitability of ruin — a meditation on mortality, isolation, and the inescapable power of fear. Narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this performance captures the story’s haunting rhythm and the slow, irresistible descent into terror that has enthralled readers for nearly two centuries. While the text is in the public domain, this narration is an original performance and copyright © 2025 Jonathan Dunne. Part of Timeless Terrors, a series devoted to resurrecting the masters of the macabre and uncanny, The Fall of the House of Usher endures as one of Poe’s most enduring works — a symphony of melancholy and madness that reminds us: when the house falls, it takes the soul with it.
