My boyfriend and I were watching The Following and he mentioned that The Tell-Tale Heart is his favorite Poe short story. I thought it seemed familiar so I hopped online and read a copy real quick.

Turns out I read this piece in high school. The ending is creepy and haunting; it stuck with me all these years. I couldn't remember the premise then, and I realized it was because I tend to speed read through most of Poe's works.

And is it just me or does the guy in this version's cover look a bit like Bill Nye the Science Guy?
