There are some secrets which refuse to remain hidden... Enter the uncanny world of Edgar Allan Poe, where reason spirals into madness and guilt has a heartbeat of its own. Critically acclaimed Box Tale Soup, creators of 2025 Fringe hit 1984, present five terrifying tales from the master of the macabre. An unknown scholar takes the stage to honour Poe's darkest masterpieces... but lines blur, and stories twist into a dangerous confession. Step closer, if you dare...
