Interesting article. Earlier in 2008, or early 2009 I think, the same town also hosted "Poe Days" to celebrate his work as well. LOL, can't help but wonder however, is it really respect for Poe and his work that is motivating these events, or rather the chance for the town to make more money off tourist revenue and ticket sales?

the line, "The event proved so popular that organisers put on a second event" . . . recreating a funeral one time wasn't enough?

OMG, let the poor man rest in peace!
