About:Edgar Allen Poe's death in Baltimore remains shrouded in mystery, but the years he spent living in the city are well documented, thanks largely to Jeff Jerome, curator of the Poe House and Museum. The row home contains Poe's telescope, writing desk and several lavishly illustrated volumes. More compelling, perhaps, are the floors he paced and windows through which he gazed and pondered. Due to extensive renovations the Poe House was closed, but now check the website for further details.

    Visit the gravesite: I'm not sure how close it is to the Edgar Allen Poe House...but a neat experience to visit the man's grave. Read up a little on Poe's life and it'll make the visit much more memorable. Baltimore's most famous author. I can't believe they named the Raven's NFL team after one of his poems. That's just so wrong.
