About this listen

In Ligeia, Edgar Allan Poe delivers one of his most haunting and psychologically charged tales—a story where love, intellect, and sheer will seem to defy the boundaries of death itself.

The narrator recalls his mysterious and brilliant wife, Ligeia—a woman of extraordinary beauty, vast intellect, and an almost supernatural intensity of spirit. Her presence is unforgettable, her voice hypnotic, and her eyes—dark, luminous, and unknowable—become an obsession that lingers long after her passing.

But death does not bring peace.

Consumed by grief, the narrator descends into isolation, opulence, and opium-fueled visions within a decaying abbey. When he remarries, the fragile Lady Rowena enters a chamber steeped in dread—where shadows move, whispers stir, and something unseen begins to take hold.

As reality fractures and the veil between life and death thins, Poe crafts a chilling meditation on obsession, identity, and the terrifying power of the human will.

Narrated by Christopher Mireider, this gothic masterpiece unfolds with eerie elegance, drawing listeners into a world where nothing is certain—and some forces refuse to remain buried.
