The Twisted Thoughts of a Twisted Man

Authors note: This still has to be edited.

The thoughts of the man that went by the name of Edgar Alan Poe were dark ones. He wrote many poems and stories, and I have read several of them. All of the ones I read were twisted, involving death, torture, murder,  and/or tragedy. ....uses similar elements in his stories for a purpose....

There are some patterns in most to all of Poe's poems and stories. One of which is that it is almost always Fall or Winter, never Summer or Spring, Fall or Winter. In "The Raven" it is Winter with the snow falling. In "The Cask of Amontillado" it is Fall with the leaves falling off the trees. In "The Masques of the Red Death" it is Fall.

Next, it is always near or around midnight. "The Tell-Tale Heart", "The Raven", "The Cask of Amontillado", "The Pit and The Pendulum", and "The Masque of the Red Death" all take place at or near the time of midnight.

And lastly, the narrator is usually to be considered insane or crazy. In "The Tell-Tale Heart", "The Cask of Amontillado", and "The Raven" the narrator is either insane or crazy with emotions.

But one question still remains, what happened to this man that made his thoughts so twisted?

Policeman's Point of View

In the cop's point of view, we see a perfectly normal human being inviting a policeman in to his house. You try to strike up a conversation, but this man is acting strange, but you decide to ignore it. He looks panicked and nervous, but you keep talking, and then all of a sudden he starts shouting random things, and admits to killing an old man.
