Located in Omenwich Square it is owned and operated by Christopher Vines - a man of hidden talents and passion for all things macabre.
This garish café, located within an eight story building at the corner of Broadway and 83rd Street, has been designed to emulate the dark and macabre of Edgar Allen. Dark and sinister Victorian architecture and decor draws one into the world of H.P. Lovecraft's, "Dunwich Horror", and large posters of classic works of terror adorn the walls.
Christopher (never Chris as he detests shortened names and abbreviations) is a morose and morbid individual obsessed with the dark-side of things but not without his own dry sense of humour. He dresses in a gothic, turn of the century style (much like Edgar himself), always wearing black.
The Café appears to be very old, strangely, far older than the building in which it is situated. This is because it is, but Christopher does openly advertise this. Once more, people don't recall what was there before nor do they rightly recall the Macabre Café never being there at all. Christopher, however, does not bear an old world accent, the coffee shop was not transported from the old world, but the new, specifically New England which also happens to be the origin of it's owner.
(The ownership of this venue may not fall into the hands of a member but all are more than welcome to portray their characters as employees of the café)
