  • The Fall of the House of Usher — Part 1
    Jun 30 2026
    A dull, dark, and soundless day. A lone rider on horseback. And a house that fills him with dread before he ever reaches the door. Gothic Summer opens with Edgar Allan Poe's 1839 masterpiece: after a brief welcome, we read the story's entire opening paragraph aloud, word for word — the approach to the melancholy House of Usher, the black tarn, and those vacant, eye-like windows. No notes, no summary. Just Poe's own words.
