Imp of the Perverse - Edgar Allan Poe

Read by Vincent Price

[@SirPaulMuaddib]

Vincent Price and Edgar Allan Poe were a match made for each other.

Poe showed us how much pleasurable a murder can be but he also showed us the consequences of murderous deeds. There is nothing more painful and terrifying than a guilty conscience.

[@GlabrioGavriloo]

Lemuel Rosario youre such a good boy. In Poe "conscience" means NOTHING. the reason to confess is precisely because therese no reason

[@XOXO-mb2vh]

Lemuel Rosario Preach!

[@haf816r]

Well put!

[@tucoramirez4077]

It is not about the murder! it is irrelevant, it is all about the confession! Or jump - if you may. It is not about conscience, It is the urge to confess to the perfect Murder- the Urge to jump into the the Abyss - The Only Reason is beacuse you can! What stops you from taking that Leap into the Abyss, it is just a small Step , and then you are heard no more! - So easy, and yet so difficult! This is the Imp of the Perverse!

It feels like poe has just written about the exact state of art/writer's block, and the propensity of anxiety and procrastination. I'm getting cold sweats just listening to this. 2:45 - 8:15

This is like 20 percent of a Bill Burr standup show in a nutshell

Vincent Price did well reading this

[@haf816r]

He could do no wrong, in my opinion. Perfect tone in his Poe readings; showed restraint here...

The narrator sounds like Brain from Pinky and the Brain lol

[@devindoherty8728]

Solid Narration, but this is a weaker story by Poe

[@corettaha7855]

A weak Poe story is still stronger writing than 95% franchise blockbusters
