Answer:

In the Tell Tale Heart, the narrator is unreliable.

Step-by-step explanation:

The narrator of The Tell Tale Heart is not reliable because he is insane. Even though the narrator repeatedly states that he is sane, through his bizarre reasoning, behavior, and speech the readers can tell otherwise.
