“No pestilence had ever been so fatal, or so hideous.”
With those unforgettable words, Edgar Allan Poe opened one of the most haunting allegories in gothic history. Now, The Raven’s Crypt invites you to descend deeper into Poe’s world of terror, dread, and psychological decay with A Collection of Edgar Allan Poe’s Haunting Tales: Vol. 2, the next chapter in our acclaimed spoken-word vinyl series.
This volume brings together two of Poe’s most powerful masterpieces—“The Masque of the Red Death” and “The Cask of Amontillado”—each performed with chilling clarity, dramatic storytelling, and atmospheric production designed specifically for the warmth and presence of vinyl.
Crafted for collectors, audiophiles, horror fans, and Poe devotees, this limited-edition Edgar Allan Poe vinyl release captures the full force of Poe’s macabre imagination. It delivers an immersive spoken-word experience that merges haunting narration with rich soundscapes to create a record that feels like a relic pulled from a forbidden library deep beneath the earth.
⭐ A Deluxe 1LP Experience — Pressed by Waxwork Records
This 1LP deluxe pre-order edition is pressed on heavyweight 180-gram vinyl by Waxwork Records, renowned worldwide for their premium-quality horror soundtracks and specialty vinyl productions. With their craftsmanship behind this release, each groove resonates with depth and clarity, ensuring Poe’s chilling tales echo through your listening space with the intensity they deserve.
The vinyl is housed in a custom gatefold jacket featuring original artwork inspired by the tragic beauty, masked decadence, and suffocating fear found within Poe’s fiction. From eerie color palettes to symbolic illustrations, every detail of the packaging is designed to amplify the emotional impact of the stories contained within.
⭐ Two Exclusive Variants — Made for Collectors
Vol. 2 is available in two premium, collectible variants, each with its own identity rooted in the themes of Poe’s works:
🔥 Red Death Variant — Red & Black Swirl (Limited to 750)
Inspired by the blood-stained visions and shadowed chambers of “The Masque of the Red Death,” this swirling red-and-black vinyl evokes the terror of a plague that respects no castle walls. The twisting colors mimic Poe’s imagery as the fatal figure moves from chamber to chamber, unstoppable and inevitable.
🔥 Walled Alive Variant — Clear with Black & Tan Splatter (Limited to 1500)
This variant echoes the stone, mortar, and chilling confinement of “The Cask of Amontillado.” The clear vinyl serves as a ghostly backdrop while black and tan splatters replicate the tones of torchlight against cold subterranean walls—an aesthetic tribute to Poe’s most sinister tale of revenge.
Each variant is strictly limited and will never be repressed in these exact colorways, making this Edgar Allan Poe record a must-have for collectors seeking rare additions to their shelves.
⭐ The Stories — Fully Performed with Atmospheric Depth
This volume includes full-length dramatic narrations of two of Poe’s defining works:
🩸 “The Masque of the Red Death”
A tale of decadent royalty, desperate escape, and a plague that cannot be evaded. Poe’s prose is violent, vivid, and dreamlike—perfect for a spoken-word experience that transports listeners into Prospero’s masquerade of madness.
As the narrator recounts the crimson horror, this recording captures the story’s rhythm, symbolism, and fatalistic crescendo with gripping emotional resonance.
🧱 “The Cask of Amontillado”
Perhaps the most chilling story of revenge ever written. On vinyl, the weight of Montresor’s cold determination becomes palpable as he lures the unsuspecting Fortunato deeper and deeper into the catacombs.
The claustrophobia, the echoing voices, the tightening dread—this performance brings the tale’s psychological terror to life in a way that feels disturbingly intimate.
