Boroughs of the Dead presents our fourth annual birthday edition of Edgar Allan Poe In Greenwich Village, a two-hour literary and historical walking tour that steps into the Greenwich Village of the 1840s, where Poe lived and worked at the height of his fame - before plunging irrevocably into the final, abysmal chapter of his short life.

On this tour, which runs one night only -- on January 22nd, to commemorate Poe's birthday -- guests will visit the site of three of his former homes, trace a path into the past to gaslight-era Washington Square Park, learn of his contemporary rivals and admirers, and see where he wrote some of his most famous stories and poems. Interweaving some of his most famous tales with Greenwich Village's macabre secret histories, this tour is guaranteed to enthrall fans of Poe's literary grotesques while honoring his literary legacy in New York City.

Edgar Allan Poe In Greenwich Village is led by Poe fan and macabre fiction writer Andrea Janes. Andrea is also the owner and founder of Boroughs of the Dead.

Meeting Point: 85 W 3rd St. between Thompson and Sullivan This tour is approximately 2 hours in duration and one mile in length. Runs rain or shine, except in cases of severely inclement weather.
