When an unnamed narrator receives a desperate letter from his childhood friend Roderick Usher, he travels to an isolated ancestral mansion surrounded by a dark, motionless lake.
Inside, he discovers a household consumed by illness, fear, and an oppressive atmosphere of decay. Roderick's mysterious condition grows worse, while his twin sister Madeline suffers from a strange and debilitating illness.
As the boundaries between imagination and reality begin to dissolve, the narrator realizes that the fate of the Usher family may be inseparable from the house itself.
First published in 1839, The Fall of the House of Usher is one of Edgar Allan Poe's most celebrated Gothic tales, exploring madness, isolation, premature burial, and the terrifying collapse of a family and its ancestral home.
