The Devil in the Belfry

A classic horror story that follows the arrival of a fiendish figure in a small town, " The Devil in the Belfry" draws its potency from the amusing, ironic, and extremely creative atmosphere. An ordered and perfect city is disturbed, while the author pays exquisite attention to the smallest of details, offering memorable descriptions and narrations. Presented with a dose of sarcasm and comedy, the story is actually a great read precisely because it is so different from the characteristic, supernatural stories of Poe.
