Entanglement and event horizon

If one of two entangled particles passes the event horizon of a black hole, will the entanglement still exist? Because that would mean information can come from a black hole.

You can't send information via entanglement only, you need a classical channel in order to relay information. So even if the entanglement persists, there's no way to relay information from inside the black hole.

Mmm...

Can you recommend me a good book about quantum physics and maybe entanglement in particular?
I'm a M.D., who may have a good brain, but my physics is high school level.

Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. Towards the end of the first lecture for the Qiskit Global Summer School 2025, Foundations of Quantum Mechanics, Olivia Lanes (Global Lead, Content and Education IBM) stated...

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
