Another room holds a complete collection Poe's work, including criticism, as well as audio productions of his most famous stories. A statue depicting a stately raven, made famous by Poe's legendary poem, sits outside, and a trip to the basement brings to mind eerie similarities to one of his most famous short stories, "The Black Cat". Literature lovers have to make a trip to this historic locale, where the Philadelphia of the early nineteen hundreds comes to life right before your eyes.
