“The Haunted Palace” by Edgar Allan Poe
Edgar Allan Poe is famous for “The Raven,” but many of his other works are just as spooky—if not more so. “The Haunted Palace” is a dark and beautiful exploration of how shades of the past haunt even the most luscious landscapes, “the greenest of our valleys.” This is a haunted house horror story in poetic form, a compelling exploration of “old time entombed.”
Writing Horror Fiction
Fright flick master John Carpenter, who terrorized the big screen for the last 50 years with movies like The Fog and most of the Halloween movies, closed in on the power of the horror genre when he said, “What scares me is what scares you. We’re all afraid of the same things. That’s why horror is such a powerful genre. All you have to do is ask yourself what frightens you and you’ll know what frightens me.”
