Your Daily Poe (Or Edgar Allan If You're Nasty) DOUBLE-SHOT TODAY, PEOPLE!

As it's officially October (BOO!), I will on every day be reading one short story written by the Master of the Macabre himself, and briefly commenting on it. Enjoy!

Day 12, part 2: The Oval Portrait

Thoughts: A story entirely created to set up yet another "then she was dead!" final sentence. Maybe this shit worked when it was spread over several periodicals over the years, but it's eye-rolling when read all together.

Memorable Line: None.
 

Score from 1 - 10: 0. But finally out of this goddam "Bereavements" section.

NOTE: no photo in post. Doesn't deserve one.
