00:00:01.600 --> 00:00:05.400
One of my favorite memories of scaring myself as a

2
00:00:05.519 --> 00:00:11.080
child was getting a compilation book of Edgar Allan Poe's

3
00:00:11.119 --> 00:00:17.719
stories from my elementary school library. It brought me so

4
00:00:17.960 --> 00:00:24.519
much fear and so much excitement. I remember running home

5
00:00:24.600 --> 00:00:29.239
from school with that book in my backpack as the

6
00:00:29.280 --> 00:00:34.759
sky was dark and a storm was coming. I was

7
00:00:34.799 --> 00:00:40.039
in my childhood living room, but I wasn't alone. I

8
00:00:40.159 --> 00:00:46.159
had a pizza and the books of Poe. Every so

9
00:00:46.359 --> 00:00:50.840
often I'll bring you a tale of Poe, and I

10
00:00:50.920 --> 00:00:56.520
hope it gives you that scary fun sense, just the

11
00:00:56.600 --> 00:01:02.159
same as it does for me. When the clock strikes midnight,

12
00:01:03.439 --> 00:01:06.120
the story will begin.

13
00:01:40.319 --> 00:01:47.000
A dream by Edgar Allan Poe in Visions of the

14
00:01:47.120 --> 00:01:51.879
Dark Night, I have dreamed of joy departed, but a

15
00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:57.000
waking dream of life and light hath left me broken hearted?

16
00:01:57.719 --> 00:01:59.000
And what is not a dream?

17
00:01:59.040 --> 00:02:02.959
By day to him whose eyes are cast on things

18
00:02:03.040 --> 00:02:07.280
around him with a ray turned back upon the past,

19
00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:13.159
that holy dream, that holy dream, while all the world

20
00:02:13.240 --> 00:02:17.400
were chiding, Hath cheered me as a lovely beam, a

21
00:02:17.560 --> 00:02:23.280
lonely spirit guiding. What though that light, through storm and

22
00:02:23.479 --> 00:02:28.360
night so trembled from afar, what could there be more

23
00:02:28.479 --> 00:02:32.240
purely bright in Truth's day star
