The symbolism of the colored rooms, the masked figure of the Red Death, and the inevitability of mortality are central themes in this macabre story. 'The Masque of the Red Death' is a prime example of Poe's mastery of the short story format, as well as his ability to create suspense and intrigue. Readers will be captivated by the chilling narrative and the psychological depth of the characters.
