Final answer:

The excerpts provided do not refer to the story 'The Black Cat' by Edgar Allan Poe, but are a collection of different and unrelated literary excerpts, each depicting various dramatic and suspenseful scenes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The narrative you're referring to seems to be a pastiche of various story excerpts that do not correlate to the known story of 'The Black Cat' by Edgar Allan Poe. Instead, these excerpts appear to be from different pieces of literature and do not directly relate to each other or to a central story of 'The Black Cat'. The passages involve suspenseful and dramatic scenes with varying themes such as danger, supernatural occurrences, and the introspections of different characters.

Answer:

The story is about an alcoholic who is driven insane by his addiction. He tortures and kills his cat. Then, a stray cat that looks almost exactly like the cat he murdered except for a gallows mark on its chest follows him home and drives him even more insane. the cat trips the man on the stairs and he raises an axe to kill him, he is then stopped by his wife and in doing so he took his frustration out on her, and kills her with the axe instead.The story then ends when the police find the dead body of the man's wife, with the cat on her head.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's actually pretty great. Should've read it.
