"Ligeia" is an early short story by American writer Edgar Allan Poe, first published in 1838. The story follows an unnamed narrator and his wife Ligeia, a beautiful and intelligent raven-haired woman. She falls ill, composes "The Conqueror Worm", and quotes lines attributed to Joseph Glanvill shortly before dying. After her death, the narrator marries the Lady Rowena. Rowena becomes ill, and she dies as well. The distraught narrator stays with her body overnight and watches as Rowena slowly comes back from the dead – though she has transformed into Ligeia.

In Ligeia, Edgar Allan Poe delivers one of his most haunting and psychologically charged tales—a story where love, intellect, and sheer will seem to defy the boundaries of death itself. The narrator recalls his mysterious and brilliant wife, Ligeia—a woman of extraordinary beauty, vast intellect, and an almost supernatural intensity of spirit. Her presence is unforgettable, her voice hypnotic, and her eyes—dark, luminous, and unknowable—become an obsession that lingers long after her passing. But death does not bring peace.
