Did Edgar Allan Poe Have a Time Machine?
Did Edgar Allan Poe have a time machine? Some people think so. What else could he have known about the event about fifty years before it happened? In his book The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket, the author describes how four sailors who survived a shipwreck were forced to eat a poor beach boy named Richard Parker. Although Poe claimed that the story was based on real events, that was not really the case. Forty-six years later, the boat sank, and the rescued crew members were forced to eat the boy's house in order to survive. What is the boy's name? Guess - Richard Parker.

"It will be back again next year, and I look forward to coming out with it." The writer died on the very day he appeared in 1910. (Americanliteraryblog, wikipedia)
