Edgar Allan Poe (January 19, 1809 – October 7, 1849) was an American poet, short story writer, editor, critic and one of the leaders of the American Romantic Movement. Best known for his tales of the macabre, Poe was one of the early American practitioners of the short story and a progenitor of detective fiction and crime fiction. He is also credited with contributing to the emergent science fiction genre.[1] Poe died at the age of 40. The cause of his death is undetermined and has been attributed to alcohol, drugs, cholera, rabies, suicide (although likely to be mistaken with his suicide attempt in the previous year), tuberculosis, and other agents.

the famous guy is this really creepy, dark author...

he wrote about this crazy person ripping apart an old guy's limbs, stuffing them under floorboards, and in his own state of mental illness began hearing the dead guy's heartbeat get louder, louder, LOUDER......

stuff like that.

there was also this japanese author who's penname was
"edogawa lanpo" (eh-doh-ga-wah rahn-po)
