The World of Edgar Allan Poe: A Conversation Puzzle invites you to explore the world of Poe and build a whole new story as you piece it together. Uncover the mysterious goings-on in this house of horror and use the clues to reveal the puzzle’s final form. This 500-piece jigsaw puzzle is a unique experience for puzzle lovers. The pieces can be arranged in several different ways, but you have to read the conversations between characters from Edgar Allan Poe’s short stories in order to understand how the puzzle goes together.

• First, put together the vignettes. Just like with any other puzzle, you use visual clues to build each scene.
• Then read the conversations in each vignette to help you solve the puzzle and put it together in the correct order. Each vignette has a similar border so you can't necessarily "see" how they fit together unless you read the clues.
• To check your work, look at the back of the puzzle. If you’ve done it correctly, you’ll reveal a quote from Edgar Allan Poe.

Whether you've read every Poe story or just know the titles, this puzzle will entrance you as you work to uncover the final configuration.
