RISING ACTIONThe rising action is where the conflict develops and is introduced. In the rising action of this story, the narrator goes into the old man's room that he lives with every night for seven nights. He watches as the old man sleeps peacefully and is quiet so that he doesn't wake him up. "And every night at midnight, I opened his door. I eased it open very gently." Everything changes on the eighth night.
I must be very quiet so that he doesn't hear me.
CLIMAXThe climax is the height of the story. It is where the most exciting thing happens- the turning point. On the eighth night of going into his room, the narator wakes up the old man on accident and sees his eye. The eye that he can't stand. It reminds him of his plan to kill the man, and suffocates him because he doesn't like his eye. "Then I opened the lantern a very, very little bit. I opened it carefully- until a single ray shot out and fell upon the vulture eye. It was wide open. I grew furious as I looked at it." This stoyboard represents the moment the old man realizes someone is in his room and gets very scared. This happens just moments before the narrator kills him.
W-w-who's there?
RESOLUTIONAt the very end of this short story, and after the old man is killed and stuffed into the floorboards, the narrator's mind tricks him out of guilt into thinking that he can still hear the old man's heartbeat. He then gets overwhelmed with the sence of guilt and confesses to the police officers. That is what is being shown right here in this storyboard. " 'Villans!' I screamed. 'Enough! I admit the deed! Tear up the planks! here, here! It is the beating of his hidous heart!'"
Fine! I'll admit it! I murdered the man!
