Spirits of the Dead | Edgar Allan Poe’s Gothic Poem of Mourning & Unseen Company

Edgar Allan Poe’s “Spirits of the Dead” turns solitude beside a tombstone into the feeling of being surrounded. The dead who were known in life seem present again, while stars, shadow, and still air deepen the mystery. This atmospheric poetry reading explores mourning and unseen companionship through the quiet imagery of Gothic verse. There is no need for a violent apparition when the whole night can feel occupied. Listen to a brief, intimate Poe poem in which being alone does not mean being free of those who came before—and silence offers little certainty. Sponsored by HenFlix.com.
