"Morgue kadun kauhu" by Edgar Allan Poe is a short story published in 1841. In Paris, two women are found brutally murdered in a locked room—one with her throat cut, the other strangled and stuffed up a chimney. Witnesses heard two voices but cannot agree on the language spoken. Amateur detective C. Auguste Dupin investigates the baffling crime, discovering clues that suggest something shocking: the killer may not be human at all. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
