Who better to celebrate the Halloween edition of
Throwback Thursday with than Edgar Allan Poe, beloved native son of our region? The Northern Virginia area abounds with places with which to commune with the spirit, books, and artifacts from Poe’s life. Our users can also frighten themselves silly by reading Poe’s collected works and learn more about his tragic life from biographies found in our collections.
Those seeking additional thrills can witness the horror writer come to life once more on October 30th at the Lyceum: Alexandria's History Museum. Members of the audience will experience the author's dramatic readings of some of his most famous works, including The Tell-Tale Heart and The Raven.
