Storyboard-Text
- Exposition
- ... Why will you say that I am mad? The disease had sharpened my senses... I heard many things in hell... Hearken! and observe how healthily -- how calmly I can tell you the whole story.
- Rising Action
- And this I did for seven long nights -- every night just at midnight -- but I found the eye always closed; and so it was impossible to do the work; for it was not the old man who vexed me, but his Evil Eye.
- Conflict
- I had my head in, and was about to open the lantern, when my thumb slipped upon the tin fastening, and the old man sprang up in the bed, crying out - "Who's there?"
- The Narrator introduces the story by talking about how he killed the old man and his vulture eye.
- Climax / Turning Point
- The old man was dead... Yes, he was stone, stone dead... His eye would trouble me no more.
- For seven nights, the Narrator goes to the old man's room but cannot kill him because the eye is closed.
- Falling Action
- I bade them search -- search well. I led them, at length, to his chamber.
- On the eighth night, the old man wakes up and the Narrator sees the eye and hears the heartbeat.
- Resolution
- Villains! Dissemble no more! I admit the deed! -- tear up the planks! -- here, here! -- it is the beating of his hideous heart!
- The Narrator kills the old man.
- The policemen arrive at the house and the narrator lets them explore around the house, including the old man's room.
- The Narrator confesses to the policemen that he was the one who killed the old man.
