Pit and the Pendulum - Unabridged

A prisoner, sentenced to death during the Spanish Inquisition, finds himself trapped in a lightless cell to contemplate his fate. Will he die by falling helplessly into a deathly, yawning pit in the center of the room? Or will the deadly, razor-sharp pendulum slowly descending from the ceiling be the cause of his demise?This is an unabridged copy of the classic story by the Master of Horror, Edgar Allan Poe.
