The Black Cat by Edgar Allan Poe is a chilling and dark tale of psychological horror that delves into the descent of a man consumed by madness and guilt. Narrated in the first person, the story follows the protagonist's spiral into violence and paranoia, triggered by his own alcoholism and cruelty toward his once-beloved pet, a black cat named Pluto. As he grapples with the consequences of his actions, a second black cat appears, seemingly haunting him and leading to a horrifying conclusion. This short story is a masterful exploration of the human mind's fragility, filled with eerie suspense and moral complexities that leave a lasting impact on readers.
