Welcome to Oaktober Fest, The Dark Oak's celebration of the spooky month of October! Every week this month, we will bring you a case that is sure to get you in the creepy mood.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

The father of mystery and the American horror story, Edgar Allan Poe was an American writer, poet, editor, and literary critic who is best known for his poetry and terrifying short stories. You would be hard pressed to find a reader who didn't get shivers up their spine at the very thought of the Raven's "Nevermore."

Fittingly, mystery and the macabre not only surrounded Poe in life but also his death, as one election day he was discovered incoherent and disheveled outside of a voting place. Did he have a bad reaction to consuming alcohol? Was he the victim of kidnapping and forced voter fraud? Was he robbed and beaten?

Cynthia and Stefanie discuss these theories and more in this special Oaktoberfest edition of The Dark Oak!
