Edgar leaves Richmond on 27 September 1849. Days later, he reappears in Baltimore desperately ill, dressed in clothes that aren’t his own, and unable to explain where he has been.

In the final episode of Poe’s Bros, we follow Edgar through his last days, the mystery surrounding his death, the tiny funeral that followed, and the battle over his reputation after he was gone.

We also look at what became of the people he left behind, and the extraordinary legacy that followed.

Because Edgar’s story did not end in Baltimore.

His legacy lives on. And we will tell his story.
