Tales of Terror is the title of a 1962 horror movie starring Vincent Price, Peter Lorre, and Basil Rathbone, directed by Roger Corman, which comprised three sequences, each based on stories by Edgar Allan Poe. The episodes are

• "Morella" (which actually resembles Poe's "Ligeia"),
• "The Black Cat" (which contains elements from "The Cask of Amontillado"),
• "The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar."

Although loosely adapted by Richard Matheson, the half-hour format of each episode allows the script to remain a bit more faithful to the original short stories than the previous Price-Corman-Poe films had.

Three stories adapted from the work of Edgar Allen Poe. A man and his daughter are reunited, but the blame for the death of his wife hangs over them, unresolved. A derelict challenges the local wine-tasting champion to a competition, but finds the man's attention to his wife worthy of more dramatic action. A man dying and in great pain agrees to be hypnotised at the moment of death, with unexpected consequences. Written by David Carroll
