EDGAR ALLAN POE, was a legendary American Gothic short story writer of the nineteenth century. He was a predominant figure of the Romantic movement in American literature and is regarded as the inventor of the detective story. He was also a notable literary critic and an unwearying reviewer and essayist. The recurring themes in his works of the death of women, bereavement, horror, madness, premature burial, decay, revival of the dead, and life after death are suggested to have resulted from his own life experiences, which was a sequence of tragic events and frequent abandonments. Poe skillfully weaved these themes into his meticulous plots and created the macabre world of terror and dark romanticism, bringing alive the horror through his choice of words. More than a century and a half after Poe's death, his works still remain as fresh and scary, sending a frightening chill down the spines of his readers.
