Hey guys, remember this?

We put out the word to make a birthday tribute to our favorite 200 year old, Edgar Allan Poe. You took our idea and ran with it. We received tons of videos and cards that far exceeded our expectations. The judges (one editor, one ominous black bird, and a milk-eyed madman) were blown away by your creativity, humor, and effort. It was hard to choose our winners from so many great videos, but we finally came down to four fabulous pieces. Congratulations to: 

Michael T.

Ross K., Tori M., Kaylee H., and Savannah D.

Emma M.

Zack H., Lyle E., David W., and Erika K.

Their videos will be featured on READ's Edgar Allan Poe electronic issue website, which launches January 16. In addition to their big debut, the winners receive cash prizes and Poe-themed goodies. Just one more reason to look
