If you are looking for the character invented by Roman Dirge, visit Lenore, the Cute Little Dead Girl.
"Lenore" is a poem written in 1843 by the american author Edgar Allan Poe. It was written four years before the death of his young wife, Virginia Poe , and may have been influenced by her declining health (she had ruptured an artery in 1842, from tuberculosis). It discusses proper decorum in the wake of the death of a young woman, and concludes with "No dirge shall I upraise,/ But waft the angel on her flight with a pćan of old days!" meaning that the narrator finds it inappropriate to "mourn" the dead, but rather to celebrate their ascension to a new world. A character by the name of Lenore is also central in Poe's poem The Raven.
