558 Words3 Pages
Who killed Edgar Allen Poe? Over the last two weeks, my class has been studying Edgar Allen Poe. In the real world no one actually knows how Poe died. Last week we started our fictional quest to find the murderer of Poe. The suspects of this crime are: The Red Death, The Raven, Annabel Lee, Lenore, Montresor, Mark Twain, Rufus Griswold, Auguste Dupin, and Person from the Tell-Tale Heart. Based on the evidence, the Raven killed Edgar Allen Poe. The Raven had two main reasons to kill Poe. One of those reasons was that Poe had created The Raven to only say “Nevermore”. At the beginning of the quest he said he was glad that he could talk without having to say “Nevermore”. The other reason The Raven had to kill Poe was that Poe made him so annoying.
