Journal Entry 71: Hints and Foreshadowing

 In ''The Tell-Tale Heart'', the narrator insist to said that he is not insane, but actually he is. At the beginning of the story, he prove that he is not insane by telling us he can hear the sound from heaven and hell, he is not destroyed something like that, then, he said, "how am I mad??". However, I still think this person is a total crazy person. The narrator LOVE and LIKE the character, which is the old man, but the old man's eye is like a eagle (vulture). The narrator feels creepy (this is the word for weird, but creepy sounds more formal in this journal) when he see the old man's eye, so he made up his mind to kill the old man. In the opening paragraph the narrator describe that he is not insane, but at the first few words, shows that he is definitely insane. If he is insane, then it is foreshadowing that he will kill somebody. BUT!! The narrator said that he is very very calm,also he is smart; however, the calm person won't be a crazy person. For example, the joker in "The Dark Knight", he is very very smart (he is like the Einstein, but it's villain version's Einstein). This story makes me feel creepy and nervous, because Poe uses the punctuation to create the feeling of nervous.
