Unknown Story
Storyboard Text
- I think it was his eye! Yes, it was this! One of his eyes resembled that of a vulture -- a pale blue eye with a film over it. Whenever it fell upon me my blood ran cold, and so by degrees, very gradually, I made up my mind to take the life of the old man, and thus rid myself of the eye forever (Paragraph 2).
- I must kill the old man for his eye is evil!
- I watched the old man every night for eight days.
- bbYou should have seen how wisely I proceeded -- with what caution -- with what foresight, with what dissimulation, I went to work! I was never kinder to the old man than during the whole week before I killed him. And every night about midnight I turned the latch of his door and opened it oh, so gently! (Paragraph 3).
- I can hear his heartbeat it keeps growing louder I love his terror!
- And now at the dead hour of the night, amid the dreadful silenceof that old house, so strange a noise as this excited me to uncontrollable terror. Yet, for some minutes longer I refrained and stood still. But the beating grew louder, louder! I thought the heart must burst. And now a new anxiety seized me -- the sound would be heard by a neighbor! The old man's hour had come! With a loud yell, I threw open the lantern and leaped into the room(Paragraph 11).
- I'm tired of his growing heartbeat I shall kill him swiftly.
- They'll never find the body I have hid it in the floor boards!
- I can't take this beating noise in my ears! I killed someone! His body is under the floorboards!
- Villains! I , dissemble no more! I admit the deed!--tear up the planks!--here here!--it is the beating of the hideous heart! (Paragraph 18).
