Full Stories of Poe

FULL STORIES OF EDGAR ALLAN POE is here for those that are curious!

Poe's The Raven

This year, a new detective story, set in Baltimore, Maryland, takes Edgar Allan Poe and his stories to task. Students have studied at least five works by Poe, and all of those works are captured in the new film The Raven, starring John Cusack as Edgar Allan Poe. As this deals with Poe's horror-centered plot lines, the movie has received an 'R' rating. In order to view this film, permission slips must be signed and returned by MONDAY, DECEMBER 3, 2012. You may download a copy of the permission slip in the ASSIGNMENTS section of the blog, on the right.
