A crumbling mansion. A family curse. A descent into terror.

The Fall of the House of Usher (1839), by Edgar Allan Poe, is one of his most celebrated works -- a chilling short story that embodies the essence of Gothic horror.

The tale begins when an unnamed narrator visits the gloomy estate of his childhood friend, Roderick Usher, who suffers from strange afflictions alongside his sister, Madeline. As storm clouds gather, the oppressive atmosphere of the house mirrors the unraveling of the Usher family itself, culminating in one of literature's most unforgettable climaxes.

With masterful prose, Poe explores themes of madness, fear, isolation, and the supernatural, weaving psychological depth with haunting imagery. The decaying mansion becomes both a setting and a symbol of inevitable doom.

Timeless and terrifying, The Fall of the House of Usher remains a cornerstone of Gothic fiction and a must-read for fans of dark, atmospheric storytelling.
