A prisoner is condemned by the Inquisition in Toledo. He wakes in total darkness, not knowing whether he is in a cell, in a tomb or somewhere worse. He feels his way along the walls, and then he learns what his captors have planned for him. Edgar Allan Poe's tale of fear, dread and a blade that swings a little lower each time, read by Nathan Edwards. Forty-eight minutes of one of the great short horror stories. For listeners who like their suspense to tighten slowly.
