I’ve long been a fan or Edgar Allen Poe. I mean … how can you not?

So when a potential client asked for a voice sample for a horror/thriller story they’re looking to have voiced, I did a quick take on one of Poe’s shorter pieces, “Eldorado,” which is now in the public domain, as it was originally published in 1949.
