Actors from Guillotine Theatre will read stories and poems by the master of macabre, including The Tell-Tale Heart, The Oval Portrait, The Cask of Amontillado, and The Raven.  Since the Athenaeum is reputed to be haunted, perhaps there will be ghostly manifestations! A dessert reception, generously donated by Firehook Bakery, follows the reading.
