Berenice

"Berenice" is a short horror story by American writer Edgar Allan Poe, first published in the Southern Literary Messenger in 1835. Egaeus, who is preparing to marry his cousin Berenice, tends to fall into periods of intense focus, during which he seems to separate himself from the outside world. Berenice begins to deteriorate from an unnamed disease until only her teeth remain healthy. Egaeus obsesses over them. When Berenice is buried, he continues to contemplate her teeth. One day, he awakens with an uneasy feeling from a trance-like state and hears screams. A servant reports that Berenice's grave has been disturbed, and she is still alive. Beside Egaeus is a shovel, a poem about "visiting the grave of my beloved", and a box containing 32 teeth. ---------- Contained in: [Best Crime Stories Ever Told](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL16681822W) [Best Known Works of Edgar Allan Poe](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL14937931W) [Bodies of the Dead and Other Great American Ghost Stories](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL2989328W) [Closed on Account of Rabies](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL26133794W) [Chat noir et autres récits fantastiques](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL21627376W) [chute de la Maison Usher et autres nouvelles](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL24276090W) [Complete Stories and Poems of Edgar Allan Poe](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL40967W) [Complete Tales & Poems of Edgar Allan Poe](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL273468W) [Complete Tales and Poems of Edgar Allan Poe](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL41071W) [E.
