Did we not both die here in Marmaros fifteen years ago? Are we any the less victims of the war than those whose bodies were torn asunder? Are we not both the living dead?”
    —Peter Ruric, and Edgar G. Ulmer. Hjalmar Poelzig (Boris Karloff)

    Sheeted memories of the past—

    In agony, to the earth—and heaven.”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
