The Pit and the Pendulum

Suspense, and the producer of Radios Outstanding Theatre of Thrills, the master of mystery and adventure, William and Robeson. In a niche all his own, apart from other great tellers of tales of terror, stands the moody dark and devious genius Edgar Allan Poe.

Obscure and ambiguous, the rolling periods of his prose are not for the casual reader, more than for the casual listener. But for sheer suspense compounded of horror piled upon horror, literature offers nothing more awful than the pit and the pendulum. The terror of the black pit would have sufficed a lesser imagination, but to this the macabre intellect of Poe added

the inescapable doom of the razor-sharp pendulum, and then piled on the rats and the moving walls of red-hot iron until the edge of the unbearable is reached. Can you take it?
