Edgar Allan Poe House (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania)

When I was in Philadelphia, I tragically missed visiting the home in which Edgar Allan Poe had spent his most productive years. Next time, I won’t make the same mistake. This is the house in which Poe resided from 1833-1844 and where he wrote such classics as “The Tell-Tale Heart” and “The Fall of the House of Usher.” And it was here that Poe’s wife Virginia became ill with the Tuberculosis that would claim her life and hasn’t the despairing self-destruction that would lead to Poe’s demise. A must-see for all enthusiasts of the macabre. Free admission too!
