An Evening with Edgar Allan Poe

About this event

The undisputed master of the macabre, Edgar Allan Poe, resurrects for one singular evening of mystery and horror. Immerse yourself in the life and death of the legendary author as actor Campbell Harmon performs Poe’s haunting prose and Gothic poetry. **About the performer:** Campbell Harmon has performed as Edgar Allan Poe since 2009. He has worked with museums, libraries, schools, the National Endowment for the Arts, and the Discovery Channel to further historical education and spark a passion for reading in young and old alike. He recently appeared on an episode of The Discovery Channel’s *Expedition Files* about Poe's death. Harmon is a displaced Kentuckian and a graduate of Yale Divinity School. He lives in Connecticut in a 129 year-old house that is absolutely not haunted.
