Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar

Poe was found on East Lombard Street on 3 October 1849 in great distress. He was never coherent long enough to explain how he came to be in his dire condition and why he was wearing clothes that were not his own. The actual cause of death remains a mystery. Speculation has included delirium tremens, heart disease, epilepsy, syphilis, meningeal inflammation, cholera and rabies.
(7 October 1849)

BirthFactDeath (-) Wednesday 29th of October 1997 27 years ago
Founder of the Church of Satan Anton Szandor LaVey born as Howard Stanton Levey dies of pulmonary edema at the age of 67 in St. Mary's Medical Center, San Francisco, California, United States. LaVey was taken to St. Mary's, a Catholic hospital, because it was the closest available. For reasons open to speculation the time and date of his death was incorrectly (by two days) listed as the morning of Halloween on his death certificate.
