„Once upon a midnight dreary, as I pondered weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore, while I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, as of someone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.“

From “The Raven", by Edgar Allan Poe.

Edgar Allan Poe was an American writer, poet, and literary critic, renowned for his mastery in the genre of gothic horror and mystery. His works, including famous poems like "The Raven" and stories like "The Tell-Tale Heart," have had a profound influence on the development of horror and detective fiction genres.
