The first of many theories is the drugs and alcohol, it's thought that these were huge influences his life. Poe used drugs as a literary device to help think up his stories. He had written a letter to Annie Richmond confirming his attempt of an overdose.
The second theory that we will discuss is suicide. His stories were thought to be strange and dark. He wrote the talking of depression, he tried a drug overdose.
The last theory is that he died of a brain tumor. Poe was dug up from his grave, and examined. The doctors
found a clump in his skull, and it's not the brain. The brain rots out along with other organs and guts, so what could it have been?
All to gether there are so many different theories on the author Edgar allen Poe’s death. Which one do do you believe? Some would argue he died from natural causes, but I think there is enough evidence to prove them wrong.
