I was a bit disappointed on this latest visit to the Poe Museum because the Raven Room was nevermore....er...no more. I always enjoyed reading The Raven in the upstairs room painted red.

At Poe's in Richmond
Tweet
Hidden away at the corner of 20th and Main is the Edgar Allan Poe Museum. I've visited a number of times and it's always deserted. I've found that many of museums and homes dedicated to American writers meet the same fate. Last year, when I visited William Faulkner's home in Oxford, Mississippi, I had the place to myself. Similarly, when I visit the Thomas Wolfe house in Asheville, North Carolina.
