I think Dahl is a lot morbider than Poe, in a lot of ways.
Maybe it's because the most disturbing of his stories remain fairly plausible. Poe is all blood and gore. I deal fine with blood and gore. Even The Fall of the House of Usher wasn't so bad as I thought it'd be.
THESE. the more I reread them, the more disturbed I am.
