Edgar Allan Poe House

A National Historic Site, the Edgar Allan Poe House, was the home to perhaps the quintessential Gothic writer. Here, he honed his craft and wrote pieces like The Raven, engineered a new genre in detective fiction, and obtained notoriety as an insightful literary critic.

• Step inside Poe's house and see where he dreamt up the ideas for stories such as Tell Tale Heart, and The Fall of the House of Usher
