October 3rd holds special significance as it was the day Edgar Allan Poe was found near Gunner's Hall before he died on October 7th.

Over one hundred and seventy years beyond his death, Poe continues to inspire a fervent adoration for short gothic fiction. Through his stories and poems, we hear his voice in our heads, feel his passion in our hearts. His works spur writers to weave their own gothic threads in a beautiful tangle of words influenced by those who have gone before, mingled with gothic worlds born anew.

Spend a day with us celebrating his lasting legacy and keeping his spirit alive. Conclude the festivities with a toast to remember him always!
