"The Cask of Amontillado" (sometimes spelled "The Casque of Amontillado") is a short story by Edgar Allan Poe, first published in the November 1846 issue of Godey's Lady's Book. The story, set in an unnamed Italian city at carnival time in an unspecified year, is about a man taking fatal revenge on a friend who, he believes, has insulted him. Like several of Poe's stories, and in keeping with the 19th-century fascination with the subject, the narrative revolves around a person being buried alive - in this case, by immurement. As in "The Black Cat" and "The Tell-Tale Heart", Poe conveys the story from the murderer's perspective. Cover by the lovely @theygotnone

I credit most of my inspiration for this book to the song Penny Lane by The Beatles.

(Was once, 'the boy in the mask') He's just one of those cliche guys. You know, the ones from the books. The football player, blondie, popular, blue eyes, chick magnet, has a group and is known. But is that really all there is to it? She isn't your average girl, but she isn't cliche at all. She has a tragic past that she hides from everyone, her eyes are like emeralds, she's is full of secrets, she is determined, and she's really shy. This actually kind of sounds cliche, but she's different. That's all I can say about her. These two met at a Halloween party, but they didn't know who was who since they were in costumes. It wasn't the first time they met and it definitely won't be the last. - Update- I used to think this wasn't cliche at all, but when I reread this I cringed cause its really cliche. In fact, the most cliche-est thing I've ever read. So, I'm gonna update, but I'm gonna write on the spot. So it'll be an adventure for all of us!!
