If I told you that a random person killed an old man because of an old man’s eye, what would you say? You see this is what happens in the captivating story in the “Tell-Tale-Hearts." A lunatic man, which happens to be narrator of this story, murdered an innocent sweet old man, not because the old sir vexed him, but because the eye did. I believe the narrator is absolutely crazy to commit such an act.
The reason I believe the main character is insane is because, as I said before, he killed a man because of the old man's eye. This “terrifying” milky white eye made the narrator's blood run cold; the thought of killing the old man crept into his mind. And once the thought fully was in the main character's head, it would not leave. For seven nights, exactly at midnight, the crazy man watched the old man sleep. This is another reason why he is mentally ill; he likes to watch his victim before he commits the sin.
The dreadful fact of someone doing this horrible murder disgusts me. To think that one person can hurt another being in such a way. For the reasons I have stated, this is why I think this man is not sane. Not just because of the things he did, but because of the way he acted.
