Answer and Explanation:
"The Black Cat" written by Edgar Alan Poe, presents the story of an alcoholic man who had his psychological and reasoning completely deteriorated because of this addiction. Although this work is a classic of Gothic literature, we can see some inaccuracies in the use of suspense within the story. This type of inaccuracy is common in the work of Poe, who was, precisely, a Gothic author. This inaccuracy occurs, due to the fact that, since the beginning of the story, it is clear to the reader that the protagonist of the story is completely unstable and bordering on madness. This shows the reader that none of the acts that this protagonist will do will, in fact, be good, but rather terrible and unbalanced like his mental state. It also does not make you suspicious about whether the character will recover or change the depressing situation in which he lives, because the reader already knows that the character will get worse and worse. This completely escapes the concept of suspense and fails to make the reader curious about what is going to happen.
