For this new season of The Poe Show podcast, I am so glad to introduce a new guest narrator to this episode who will narrate some of their own poems. He is one of the most famous American poets of all time, having written 256 poems in his lifetime. Today we are privileged to hear from Robert Frost's own voice the two poems The Road Not Taken and Woods On A Snowy Evening. Yes, this is a mock interview I've crafted with Robert Frost, but if you'd like to see the actual interviews I took these clips from then click the links in the description.

Christmas Dinner With The Devil
The Poe Show
01/07/25 • 62 min
Yes, that’s right. Victorian ghost stories are becoming a regular occurrence on The Poe Show! This time, our ghost story from 1858 follows a man who happens to dine with the devil. After dinner, the two travel to their “journey’s end” together, passing many other lost souls. James Hain Friswell wrote this spooky winter tale over 160 years ago, but the dreary and ghostly narrative is as entertaining today as it has ever been! Now, please enjoy The Oxford Ghost. Otherwise known as...Christmas Dinner with the Devil.

The Black Cat
The Poe Show
05/28/23 • 32 min
(CAUTION: story contains animal abuse)
A story of spiritual torment and the individual possibility for good or evil, The Black Cat is quite a strange tale of the human ability to comment on our own behavior.

Poem: O Tempora, O Mores
The Poe Show
04/07/24 • 17 min
Listen to one of Edgar Allan Poe's earliest poems ever written! As only a teenager, Poe had written a collection of poems which he published into a book titled "Tamerlane and Other Poems." Although this poem was not included in that book, it comes from the same time period that young Poe had been writing his first works. Let's dive into the mind of a teenage Poe...

Poem: The City in the Sea
The Poe Show
08/07/24 • 11 min
Edgar Allan Poe wrote this creepy poem as a young man serving in the military. With its intense atmosphere and vivid details of the macabre surroundings describing this ghost town, it's possible he could have been writing about his own horrific experiences during his service. Come along and take a journey through the city in the sea.
