Who dares knock, knock, knock on the Raven's chamber door? He'll have you know he's a poet, and he's very busy avoiding his romantic life and sobering up for Prospero's party. When his life as a writer and life as a forever-bachelor collide in a time jumping vignette adventure through the bibliography of one Edgar Allan Poe, fate propels the Raven to further dissect his own avoidance of love.

A comedic romp borne from the wombs of Company and Fleabag, producing a very demented Hot Topic loving, Paramore stanning goth baby, complete with your favorite 1890s and 1990s hits.

Content Warning: references of suicide. For audiences 18+.
