In looking up the shorter of the two animations above I came across a post from four years ago in which I featured a short animation of Poe’s Tell Tale Heart. That video is embedded below.

Applications for Education
Watching these animations is not a replacement for reading the stories, but they could make good support material for students who struggle with reading the text.
