The podcast discusses the mysterious death of Edgar Allan Poe. The most plausible theory is that he was a victim of cooping, a practice of voter fraud in the 1800s. Cooping involved kidnapping, beating, and forcing the victim to vote multiple times under a fake name. Poe's alcohol problems made him vulnerable, and the alcohol given as a reward after cooping would have caused him to enter a semi-conscious state. Another theory suggests that Poe may have been murdered by his fiancé and brothers, but this theory is less likely. The podcast concludes by mentioning the sources used for research. Welcome back to Mystery Swarm! Today we will be talking about Edgar Allan Poe with a special guest, Upon. Okay, so today on our podcast we will be talking about the death of Edgar Allan Poe with our special guest, Upon. So if you would like to say hi. Okay, I'm here today, I'm very happy to discuss Edgar Allan Poe with my best friend, Romaril. Okay, yeah, thank you. Just a little bit to me, my best friend is Rom. Okay, thank you for that, Upon. So we will begin now. There's still one mystery consuming this world by storm. It is the death of the famous English poet, Edgar Allan Poe. And before I go into detail here, let me give you a background of how events unfolded in Baltimore at the scene of the mystery. On October 3rd, 1849, the famous English poet, Edgar Allan Poe, was heading out to a voting booth, Gunner's Hall. Here he was, before he was found, wearing second-hand clothing in a semi-conscious, ragged state by Prince Joseph. Whatever, yaar. Screw that, I'll just get to theory, hiya. Okay, anyways, now there are many theories about his... Information, please! Information! But the most plausible theory is a serious alcohol incident, followed by the cruel method of cooping. Cooping was a practice of voter fraud in the 1800s. It is where the victim is kidnapped, beaten, and then forced to vote several times under a fake name. In the end, they are given alcohol as a reward for being the victim. I know, it's crazy. Yes, as we know, according to Semper, a person mentioned in Natasha Geeling's Smithsonian article, he had hereditary problems related to alcohol. After a glass of wine, he was staggeringly drunk. It seems to be something hereditary. So, if he gets very drunk after one glass of wine, then the typical whiskey given by cooping groups at the end will make him severely drunk or unconscious. Now can you please discuss about how cooping is taken to this? We know he has alcohol problems, but keep talking. Okay, so now moving along with the chain of events, we have cooping. Cooping was mainly targeted at people who were vulnerable. In this case, the drunk poe. After a victim is kidnapped and then beaten, poes ragged stay at the scene. And since we know that cooping was especially common in Baltimore around the mid-1800s, it's very possible he was a victim of cooping right after he was in his vulnerable state. As we know, when you were in a plot of cooping, they beat you, rags off at the scene, force you to vote under a fake name, and then they give you alcohol or drugs as a reward. In this case, when they force you to vote under a fake ID, they will make you wear different things to comply with voting requirements for each fake ID, second-hand clothing at the scene. And finally, the semi-conscious self at the scene is explained by the alcohol given at the end of the cooping incident. Because of all the problems he was facing with alcohol, a typical bottle of whiskey you get at the end would cause him to enter a semi-conscious state, and since he had, quote, gone on a drinking blip, then there. Before this, it is most likely that cooping is tied in with alcohol. Okay, now can you please discuss about other theories? Yes, there are many other theories, but do any complain with the kids? Yes, there is one, please stop interrupting me. It is described as a possible murder theory, written in a book by author John Walsh. He describes the entire case in vivid detail, and the events do fall into place, except for one major factor that throws his entire theory off. Walsh now describes the entire scene of events in detail, as we said earlier, Gunner's Hall of Stealth, in his book. John Walsh claims that Edgar Allan Poe may have been murdered in a plot of his fiancé and brothers. Since they had a bad relationship with Poe, maybe they had something bad and they were planning on killing him, he claims. He claims that Poe reached back to Philadelphia, where he was wearing second-hand clothing so that they, the brothers, wouldn't catch it, second-hand clothing explanation. He also claims that Poe was beaten, ragged himself at the scene, and that they forced him to drink whiskey, as they knew it would put him in a very weak, and particularly semi-conscious state. Semi-conscious state at the scene, obviously. Also, this book was written to enter- but, but, this book was written to entertain Walsh at a later unveiling of the book, and it says that he reached back to Philadelphia, does not talk about him in Baltimore, where he was found. So, oh, okay, I understand. So, since this is a more impactful theory, why do we do this subject? Well, it was fitting every box until Philadelphia came instead of Baltimore, so I thought I could prove this theory irrelevant. Oh, okay, yeah. So, after you prove this theory irrelevant, what do you do next? We continue researching, and then see if there is anything else that we can do. So, this is the end of the episode, Mysteries Swarmed by Om Iyer, with his special guest, Yappan. Thank you for having me, bro! Okay, so, we will finish wrapping up here, and I had some sources throughout this text. I had Natasha Geeling's Smithsonian article, The Mysterious Death of Edgar Allan Poe, and Kyriakoski John's article over Edgar Allan Poe's death. Thank you.
