Documented folklore from the Club 49 map, told straight and sourced.
Edgar Allan Poe died in Baltimore in October 1849 under circumstances no one has ever explained, found delirious in a stranger’s clothes outside a tavern, and was buried at Westminster. For sixty years a figure in black known only as the Poe Toaster slipped into the locked graveyard every January 19th, his birthday, and left three roses and a half-bottle of cognac on the stone, then vanished. The visits stopped in 2009, and no one ever learned who he was.
Westminster Hall and Burying Ground, downtown Baltimore (MD). Source: TRUE: a real grave and a real six-decade mystery. The Club 49 map pins this legend at its documented country, beside the real mines, active claims, land status and modeled honey holes of the same ground. Open the free map and go stand in the story.
