A man has long wanted to test one idea: can a person be held in the moment of death? His subject is M. Valdemar, a friend who is dying of consumption. He asks Valdemar, with his own consent, to be put under a trance in his last hours. The experiment works. It also works too well. Edgar Allan Poe's 1845 tale is told as a plain medical report, which is what makes it so hard to forget. Read by Gid Newell. Thirty-three minutes of Gothic horror.
