Directed by Mario Bava. Testing the Kanopy library streaming service playing through the new TV. Problem is I watched two crime movies last night on the laptop and it screwed up all the Recommended for You cult science fiction and horror titles I saw last night. After I watch this it will probably go back. They had my interests pegged pretty well before. I first saw Black Sunday on DVD from the library. Recommended.

Baltimore City, Oct. 3, 1849

Dear Sir,

There is a gentleman, rather the worse for wear, at Ryan’s 4th ward polls, who goes under the cognomen of Edgar A. Poe, and who appears in great distress, & he says he is acquainted with you, he is in need of immediate assistance.

Yours, in haste,
JOS. W. WALKER
To Dr. J.E. Snodgrass.
