As a mysterious illness consumes his new wife, the narrator confronts the horrifying possibility of a will that outlasts the grave.From the definitive master of the macabre, Edgar Allan Poe, comes a haunting and fevered meditation on love that defies the grave. Ligeia, first published in 1838, is a cornerstone of gothic horror, showcasing Poe’s brilliant fusion of psychological intensity and supernatural terror.This atmospheric and gripping tale is essential reading for fans of classic horror, supernatural fiction, and Poe’s darkest psychological dramas.
