There is a hidden door in Rio that reveals itself only to those who know where to look; time seems to move more slowly—as if the city were guarding a secret: the Edgar Allan Poe Speakeasy transforms mixology into a ritual and classic literature into a living experience, accompanied by live storytelling.
The atmosphere is elegant, unsettling, and magnetic—an invitation to experience Poe up close, on a night that blends words, atmosphere, and flavor into a single sensory journey.

What is the Edgar Allan Poe Speakeasy experience?
Imagine four doors, each leading to a different Edgar Allan Poe nightmare—and you, with a glass in hand, about to walk through them all. The Edgar Allan Poe Speakeasy is an immersive experience divided into four acts, transporting the writer’s dark universe into the real world through live storytelling, a gothic setting, and signature cocktails inspired by each tale. A combination of literature, mystery, and drinks that promises to awaken all your senses.
Why does Edgar Allan Poe belong in the shadows of a speakeasy?
Poe’s writing demands more than just reading: it demands intimacy. By candlelight, *The Raven* takes on a new intensity, while the unease of *The Black Cat* and the psychological tension of *The Tell-Tale Heart* find the perfect setting to captivate the listener.
The somber atmosphere of *The Masque of the Red Death* comes to life in every detail, from the dimly lit candles to the clinking of ice in the shaker. Here, every drink is part of the story: flavors and aromas that help transport you into Poe’s universe.
