The Fall of the House of Usher #951859

An unnamed narrator arrives at a decaying mansion to comfort a childhood friend, only to be drawn into a mire of sensory overload and ancestral madness. The house itself seems alive, mirroring the mental and physical disintegration of its inhabitants. As a storm rages outside, the boundaries between the living and the dead collapse within. It is the quintessential gothic tale of a family's inevitable slide into oblivion.
