The argument that Robert McIlvaine brings forth is a valid one. It seems as if Edgar Allen Poe wrote the story “The Tell-Tale Heart” with Shakespeare’s “Macbeth” in mind. There are interesting parallel structures in Edgar Allen Poe’s writing that corresponds to Shakespeare’s play making the themes between the two pieces of writing similar.
