Holland, Michigan - Edgar Allan Poe Club 1966


I first read about this place in David Dekok's "Murder In The Stacks," the definitive story of the still-unsolved 1969 murder of Penn State student (and Holland native) Betsy Aardsma. Dekok goes into a lot of fascinating detail about mid-sixties Holland, and describes the Poe Club as a hangout for local Hope College students. I haven't been able to find any photos of the interior or exterior of the club, but damn - great name.

For what it's worth, Dekok's book is highly recommended. Take a look here.
