Paul Calvalconte sitting in for Corny O'Connell this week. Bronx resident and master of literary suspense, Edgar Allan Poe, casts a long shadow of mystery and imagination.

He was born on this day in 1809, so for Question of the Day, let's go to scary song places to honor him. Frighten me with a song and I'll get to a set after 9 a.m.

Songs played:

1. Alan Parsons Project, "The Cask Of Amontillado"
2. The Smiths, "Cemetery Gates"
3. Phish, "Ghost"
4. The Beatles, "I Am The Walrus"
