Join us for an intimate, one-night only experience with the dearly departed Edgar Allan Poe who returns to Salem for an appearance that should not be missed. In a theatrically morbid setting, Mister Poe performs dramatic readings of “The Raven” and “A Tell-Tale Heart” – a story rumored to be based upon an actual event in Salem’s gory history. Remaining in character, Mister Poe will describe the details of his life, his work and his ever mysterious death. Have a question you’d love to know about the late poet?
He’d be happy to enlighten you!
Prior to the performance each guest can toast to Poe like the famous “Poe Toaster” who for decades appeared at Poe’s grave every year on the anniversary of his death.
A smooth sip of cognac, in a commemorative shot glass, begins your adventure into insanity!
