Event Details

Iowa storyteller Darrin Crow will bring Gothic horror master Edgar Allan Poe to life in Morbid Curiosities– An Evening with Edgar Allan Poe. The master of Gothic horror comes from beyond the veil to talk with audiences about his life and share his best stories and poetry including “The Masque of the Red Death”, “The Raven” and “The Tell Tale Heart.” The performance also features one of Poe's comedies, "The Angel of the Odd," a cautionary tall tale about the dangers of too much drinking.

Darrin Crow tells powerful, imaginative, engaging stories that keep audiences on the edge of their seats and stick with them long after the tale ends. He has been telling stories since he was in high school with stops along the way working in museums and theater.
