October 7,1849, is a date many people are well acquainted with. Five days prior, renowned poet Edgar Allan Poe was found delirious and in need of “immediate assistance”. On the 7th, he died. The events leading up to his October 3rd discovery are widely disputed, and Poe himself was never able to explain what had happened to him. His death remains a mystery to this day.
Why I chose this one: These three are so much fun to listen to, and today is the anniversary of the discovery of Poe, lying helpless in the street.
