Edgar Allan Poe's Roommate Ad

Edgar Allan Poe

Acerca de

Edgar Allan Poe posts a roommate ad:

"Seeking quiet individual. Non-smoker preferred. Must tolerate occasional raven. No questions about the floorboards. The previous tenant? Moved out. Suddenly. At night. His heart wasn't in it anymore."

Thirty-seven applicants. All withdrew after the interview.

Except one guy named Fortunato. Said he loved the wine cellar.
