Explore the enduring mystery surrounding Poe’s tragic end on a special Bus Tour of Edgar Allan Poe’s Life and Death in Baltimore. The 90-minute tour ticket includes stops at four important Poe Places around Baltimore, including Poe’s graves (he has two!) plus the sites where Poe was found and passed away. Bus ticket also includes tour of the Edgar Allan Poe House & Museum. Please note that Poe House is an historic site and not ADA accessible (there is no elevator or ramp to the second floor.)
The Poe Toaster is dead, murdered at the grave of Edgar Allan Poe and his killer is on the loose. Solve the mystery for Poe's birthday!
For decades, a mysterious figure left a tribute of cognac and roses at literary horror master Edgar Allan Poe's grave in Baltimore. In the final years, strangely worded messages were left alongside the mysterious visitor's gift. The tradition ended abruptly, with no clue as to the fate of the anonymous "Poe Toaster."
Or at least... that's what the killer wanted the world to believe!
