Mike Flanagan's The Fall of the House of Usher takes place in an Edgar Allan Poe universe. Here's a list of the spooky stories in the show.
Among Mike Flanagan's many collaborations with Netflix are horror miniseries adapted from work by Shirley Jackson and Henry James . These were classic works from the literary canon, reimagined for the modern world. It makes sense that Flanagan's next Netflix collaboration would be to adapt work from Edgar Allan Poe, a heavy influence on both James and Jackson, often credited as the creator of the gothic horror genre.
The Raven Is "The Raven," the most famous poem in the world? If not, it's at least Poe's best-known work. In the poem, our narrator is up late on a cold winter evening. He cannot sleep because he's grief-stricken following his love, Lenore, "the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels named Lenore." A raven flies into his window, and he can't get it to leave.
The Masque of the Red Death "The Masque of the Red Death" is a revenge story, and based on the same class divide as the series promises to be. In this tale from Poe, during a time of plague known as the Red Death, the upper class of a medieval city seals themselves in the palace of Prince Prospero. Thinking themselves safe from infection, they throw themselves a gaudy masquerade ball. But a mysterious guest, wearing a skeletal mask, invades, and horror ensues.
Annabelle Lee Most of the story will be told in flashbacks, narrated by Roderick to Dupin . In the distant past, we'll meet Roderick Usher's first wife, and the love of his life, named Annabelle Lee . Anabelle Lee is also the name of Poe's poem about a childhood love who passed away. The poem is generally considered to be inspired by Poe's own wife, Virginia Eliza Clemm – who was also his cousin.
