โฆ Synopsis
Edgar Allan Poe, American writer, poet, critic, and Steampunk Ghostbuster!
Poe has always had a close and personal relationship with death. Once he used his pen to keep his demons at bay, but after the death of his beloved wife Virginia, he is taking a more direct approach. Poe has invented The Specter Eliminator, a portable device capable of extinguishing spirits. With it, he moonlights as a ghost hunter while trying to raise the funds to start his one magazine, The Stylus.
When Poe is tasked with clearing a malevolent spirit from a Georgia mansion, he meets a rival ghost hunter who is very interested in the Specter Eliminator. Poe refuses to join forces and the rival makes it clear he will have Poe's invention one way or another.
Join Edgar Allan Poe as he uncovers an insidious plot to enslave the dead and revolutionize modern warfare in this steampunk, ghost-hunting adventure that takes you from Boston, Massachusetts, to the Wild West.
