Rezensionen für Gruselkabinett, Folge 139

[mirekluza · Bewertung: 4 von 5 Sternen]

This is again combination of two Poe's work - here "Ligeia" and "The Raven". Actually it is rather Ligea, The Raven just replaced another poem inside of the Ligea story.
I am not friend of these combinations, it usually means weakly connecting two unrelated stories without creating anything better.
There are at least two other audioplays done like that in this serie. The result here is better, but only because The Raven is mostly just inserted instead of another poem and does not influence the story of Ligea that much.
The title of the play is misleading - Ligeia would be much more closer to reality - I guess it was motivated by the popularity of The Raven (Ligeia is not that well known).
Overall the audioplay is not bad, but it would be still better to have Poe's works adapted as they should be instead of doing always these artificial 2-in-1 combinations.
