Poe's shortest yet greatest masterpiece. The line between perfection and obsession is extremely fragile.

[@gabriellebouchet9687]

It really reflects the atmosphere of the story. Amazing work !

[@bruh-uq2zx]

I was little skeptical at first, but that was really good. One of my favorite Poe stories, and actually, I have been working on a short live-action film for it. Well-done!

[@bobbys_mad_world]

Did you ever finish your live action film?

[@_PrincessMaggot]

I’m really curious as well, if you upload it I’d love to see it!

[@Owen69420]

Where’s the film, Davy??!!?

[@keeleysell]

I'm so confused? I'm doing this for English and I don't even know what I just witnessed.
