"The Haunted House" by Vic Crume (1970) Read and mastered by John C Roberts

The Haunted House

(8:20) A dramatic reading of Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven" (1845), with background sounds.  Turn up your speakers, turn off the lights, and experience a bereaved man's descent from grief into madness and despair.

After I finalized the track, I realized I had mis-pronounced "nepenthe".  *sigh*  Well, this is my first project, so I didn't think it would be perfect, but it's still pretty darned good.
