Tales of the Macabre

I‘ve missed posting weird stuff, so I‘m going to post 7 of my stranger Poe things in 7 days. 😁 Day 1 - Poe, Master of Macabre (P.H. Bellas, Xavier Press 1995). Copy #83 of 200. The little thing in the (bottom right) corner is a piece of grass from his gravesite. There‘s a miniature sleeve on the back cover that this slides into. The book contains several little collectibles like this... 😋

Gina That.is.FANtastic! 7y

mypoesoul Thanks so much, @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @cobwebmoth @GarthRanzz @FlowerFairy @Librarybelle @BookwormAHN @TricksyTails @Gina ! ☺️ @ErinGoBragh1011 , I found it on eBay a few weeks ago. It was the first time I had ever seen it listed, and I‘m constantly on eBay. 🤫 It seems like they are very difficult to find, unless you know exactly what to ‘Google‘, but I just found one more in existence that I know of - https://goo.gl/FwbMpB 😉 7y

ErinGoBragh1011 @mypoesoul you're the best! Thanks! Hopefully its still there on pay day. 🤞 7y

Gina So I have read about Poe's mysterious death. Do you think it was "cooping" the voter fraud theory? 7y

mypoesoul @Gina Oh, definitely. Everything about it makes sense, but I think the efforts of people like Rufus Griswold have tarnished his history so badly, that it makes people question the obvious. It‘s sad that history can be written upon the lies of others and years later becomes accepted as the truth, or at least clouds it. Another one of my favorite historical figures is Nikola Tesla, and thieves like Edison robbed him from our history books. 😞 (edited) 7y

Gina @mypoesoul ohohohoh meeee tooooo. And yes I think Edision was great at self promotion and a complete scum bag. This book is historical fiction but it really has bits of truth from history and it portrays Edsion as he really was. Tessa, Morgan and Bell are also in it.

The Last Days of Night: A Novel

mypoesoul @Gina Looks interesting, I‘ll have to check it out. Thanks! 😃 Not that I condone violence, but if Edison were alive today, I‘d find his address and go punch him in the throat, for what he did to Tesla. 🤜 I‘d then hunt down Marconi next... 😋 7y

Gina @mypoesoul yessss I understand. It is so disheartening that he is the one children know about with no true context of how he just road off the backs if others with his conniving ways, such as the whole electrocuting dog thing to make false claims against Westinghouse as they battled for the light bulb patent. I really hope karma has caught up with him. Btw I taught my boys all about Tesla and the truth of Edison! 7y

mypoesoul @Gina Awesome, every parent should be required to do the same thing! Kudos to you!!! ☺️ #thetruthisoutthere 7y
