  Description: 
  The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe remains one of the most haunting and iconic poems in the history of literature — a mesmerizing study of grief, memory, and the slow unraveling of reason. On a bleak December night, a bereaved scholar is visited by a mysterious raven whose single utterance, “Nevermore,” becomes a refrain of despair echoing through the chambers of his soul. 
  Through Poe’s hypnotic rhythm and rich, musical language, The Raven captures the descent from melancholy into madness — a lyrical exploration of love lost and the mind’s torment when faced with the finality of death. Its imagery, cadence, and psychological depth have made it an enduring symbol of gothic horror and tragic beauty. 
  Narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this rendition brings new life to Poe’s dark masterpiece, balancing the poem’s haunting melody with a performance steeped in sorrow and dread. While the text itself resides in the public domain, this narration is an original work and copyright © 2025 Jonathan Dunne. 
  Part of Timeless Terrors, a series devoted to resurrecting the enduring works of classic horror and the uncanny, The Raven stands as a timeless elegy to love, loss, and the unquiet mind — where the voice of the dead may yet answer from the dark. 
  Prepare for a journey through shadow and sorrow, where memory takes wing, and reason falls beneath the beat of the black bird’s cry.
