MAP#77 – The Masque of the Red Death

Masque-of-the-red-death

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

The Great Plague or Black Death ravaged Europe in the 14th century, killing around 200 million people. No one was immune to the Plague! But as we’ll find out in today’s episode one man thought his wealth could keep him safe.

Today on the Halloween inspired episode we are going to listen to Edgar Allan Poe’s The Masque of the Red Death. It’s a story of the lower class suffering while the Nobles stay safe in their castle…but with Poe there is always a twist…

The creepy cool background music was by Natureworld1986. You can find all his music on his Youtube Channel.
