This looks like a good choice to read out loud by the light of a single candle at midnight (Ned Dameron, A Guide to Gothic Earth in TSR’s 1994 AD&D campaign expansion boxed set Ravenloft: Masque of the Red Death and Other Tales)

Bugsnax this, Radiance that, just IMAGINE the showdown that would have been Masque of the Red Death v SCP-049: The Plague Doctor; UNSTOPPABLE FORCE VS IMMOVABLE OBJECT
Context below the cut, I know the tag list is weird but I promise below the cut will make it make sense

(SPOILERS for The Fall of the House of Usher)
My one minor critique about the Fall of the House of Usher is really just a big pet peeve of mine that I've seen in other stories: the entire narrative is Roderick confessing to Auggie about everything that has happened, going through all sorts of crimes and how each person has died, But then after everything, Auggie just decides not to do anything with the recording??? We went through this huge story and the answers to so many issues die with the Ushers?
Not taking it to evidence to exhume Griswold, not closing other various cold cases that the confessions may have solved, not sharing it to the world to give everyone else effected by the Ushers a sense of justice, not giving any of the spouses or significant others connected to the family a sense of closure of what the hell happened, and most importantly and ....most heinously... not telling Morrie about why her innocent hero of a daughter is dead.
I get the intended conclusion is that Auggie is finally at peace and saw justice served, but isn't the story a lot bigger than just him? At the very least, I like to think he told Morrie, Jules, and Bill off screen. What's the point of recording the story if it's not going to go anywhere? Like he couldn't in good conscience just leave a dead body buried underneath Fortunato? They could've just had Auggie accidentally leave the recording in the house when it got destroyed or like to see if before he made it out and made the split decision to leave it - giving at least some sort of dramatic satisfaction to his choice.
Maybe I'm missing something, lemme know if anyone has any other thoughts.

I am super lucky to have gotten to se Phantom when I was a kid. My folks took us to see it in Chicago. It was a formative experience. I drew this version of the Masque of the Red Death way back in 2009.
