Poe Museum curator Chris Semtner visits the program to talk about the Mysterious Life and Death of Edgar Allan Poe on what would have been the 171st anniversary of his death. We also discuss the strange death of a young woman who inspired one of the first-ever true crime stories published, written by Edgar Allan Poe, and how some people theorize that it might have led to potential foul play surrounding his death.
