    Thanks for uploading this. Vincent Price would be my ideal choice of reader for Poe's tales just as he was perfect in the Roger Corman's adapted (much adapted methinks) films of the 1960s. Unique , superbly talented writer and uniquely gifted, moving, spooky, gentlemanly, scary, funny and very witty actor as reader. Like I said: Perfection. Thank you and where can I purchase the whole collection? (I've listened to other works of Poe he has read , TY for an erudite, entertaining, eclectic channel) but feel sure he has read more or performed in radio more of Poe's poems and tales. Any help or guidance would be most welcome.

      I think you'll love these ghost stores, so perfect for Halloween! Two radio play ghost stories and, AND a brand new mystery listed on my channel “Claude Chabot Presents” right here on YT AND a radio comedy, “A Trip to the Moon” starring Joyce Randolph of The Honeymooners.

      Start with his awesome Wikipedia page. He was involved with audio series like The Price Of Fear And others. As well as several RCA record albums of narratives of E.A.Poe and other classic horror writers.

    Those here listening to Berenice, should also check out Morella, and last, but definitely not least,
    Ligeia. The voice timbre and inflection complement each other to deliver the perfect sense of general impendance.

    Vincent's voice AND INSIGHTFUL EMOTIONAL APPROACH when reading Poe makes the listener a fly on the wall in every scene or depiction.

    Edgar Allen Poe is probably one of the greatest writers. The way he uses the written word to convey himself along with his form of imagination is amazing yet dark to some who don't have such taste in real writing.

      Poe is defiinitely too intense for the "faint of reading".

    • @Cantbuyathrill

      Well past the middle of this tale, things take a turn for the fucked up when he starts talking about THE TEETH!!

      Poe was obsessed with burial right on the premises, was that a thing back then? or just another Poe kink?

      It's well known that words give shape to our thoughts, but Poe gives shapes to words, like no onther writer.

    The irony is that Price was such a campy, class-C movie (over)actor, he is, conversely, such a brilliant audiobook voice. He impresses Poe's works with a type of indispensable gothic romanticism unique in him.

    Thank you. I am a bookworm. I am better at reading audiobooks and I read all kinds of books. Vincent price is one of my favorite actors. Especially when he portaryed his voice in michael jackson thriller. I learn things by the internet and I listen to audiobooks. My mom can't afford me to send me to college or buy a car. So I get busy by watching movies and reading books. I am a vizual learner. They don't even teach you how to write cursive anymore. Which is wuite sad. Lol. I never learned cursive when I was in school. They teach you about evolution and other things. But no hands on experience. Lol.

      I guess every agency or company has their own policy out there. Money. Money, money money. What people do for money these days. I have seen an artice somewhere on facebook that some of the richest people out there when they grow in old age and don't have anyone to look after them when they accumulate riches commit suicide. Because they are miserable. Some people are corrupted out there. I graduated from school in 2009. And now I lost some skills after I got older. I will be 29 this year. And I need to find a job soon enough because I will not be having my mom around forever to help me with the bills. I need to pay my own bills and create a budget. And I need to keep moving on with my life and stay busy. I like to stay active and it makes me feel so good about myself. Stay out of trouble. Lol.

      Damn! I've been working and paying my own bills since I was 18 without any help from my parents. Also, I put myself through college while working full-time to survive. You need to get your big boy pants on, get up off your dead ass and find a job. You're right, mommy won't be around forever. Man up! Typical millennial!

    • @coltraneole

      Yeah, 29 is like waaaaaaay too old to be living like a little boy.

      Poe wrote in cursive and so can you. Better yet, write in Blessive.

    I must mention that whenever the human throat is affected with laryngitis, one sounds just like Vincent.
