Blog Set 10

I the story the falloff the house of the usher it kind of was describing a spooky house kind of like the haunted houses at universal. but in the tory poe lets us know tht Roderick was one of his childhood friends also he said that Roderick was gloomy and mysterious.. also he said the house had an evil and diseased atmosphere from the decaying trees and mucky ponds around it. in the story poe says he came to the house because Roderick sent him a letter. in the letter Roderick was saying that he was feeling physical and emotionally ill. but the whole time im reading this im saying to myself I wouldn't step foot in that house if the house looked like it had an evil and diseased atmosphere. even tho Roderick was my childhood friend I would  be no were near that house. in plus he was saying that the inside of the house was just as spooky as the outside. also he says that Roderick is paler and less energetic that he once was. while he saying he was entering the house the whole time in y head im thinking about people at universal entering one of th haunter houses and seeing this zombie looking guy in a hotel uniform sitting down in a chair.

in the story afterward it was kind of hard for me to actually understand the story. although I know it was a little different from the first story. But I actually had to read it over a few times. but what I got out of the story after reading after a few times was that it was this lady named mary. Her husband disappeared but she keeps seeing his ghost also I remember this one part in the story that her cousin told her there was ghost but she wont know about them until long afterward. this story was more of a gothic style story in my opinion.

Update: with the story afterward it was basically those types of story that its like a mirror effect. in the beginning it said it was a ghost but she wont know until afterward. then in the end it said the same thing but in the end we actually understand why it said that.
