Visiting With Edgar
Poe's house and his grave are about half a mile apart. He's buried in an ancient church yard. It's not just any old church yard either. It's Westminster Burial Ground and Poe isn't the only notable resident. There are others.
The last unfinished manuscript of Edgar Allan Poe was ironically (in our case) about a lighthouse keeper. I'm still not sure how you can call four pages a manuscript but then I'm not a literary scholar.
Here's something fun and strangely appropriate (I thought) - John Cusack to play Poe
The history of Poe's grave
I'm not sure dogs are actually allowed in here. We didn't ask permission but Stella was on her best behavior.
