La verdad sobre el caso del señor Valdemar

Blurb

"The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar" is a short story by American author Edgar Allan Poe about a mesmerist who puts a man in a suspended hypnotic state at the moment of death. An example of a tale of suspense and horror, it is also, to a certain degree, a hoax, as it was published without claiming to be fictional, and many at the time of publication took it to be a factual account. Poe toyed with this for a while before admitting it was a work of pure fiction in his marginalia.
