It's a mystery; although he has been observed, the man has never been identified. This tradition has been ongoing since 1949 and occurs on Poe's birthday (Jan 19). In 1998 a younger man began to perform the task and it is believed that the original visitor has passed on the tradition to a son.

It is a short story called The Tell Tale Heart. I presume this is for school, and considering you can't get the title or the category right, you really need to study. However, it's memorable because it exposes human insanity, the fallibility of the human state and the way it turns over on itself involuntarily. Just read it, it's worth it. Poe is incredible.

Nobody knows. Although the person in question has been seen he has never been identified.
