Edgar Allan Poe

I have read his work before. I read "The pit and the pendulum." It is about a prisoner in a cell waiting to be executed it was so dark that he couldent see anything as he is walking around he tripes and falls then he notices the large pit in the center of the room. The prisoner passes out and wakes up to being straped to a table and a pendalum swinging above him and gting lower Then rats start to clime on him and knaw at the ropes. He then got out of the way of the pendalum but as soon as he got up the walls started to close in on him going to push him into the pit as he was about to be pushed in he walls stop. The jail owners have been overrun and he is freed.

I think we will be reading a little bit of Edgar Allan Poe and a few different scary stories amd we will write our own.
