It is grave in a sense of being very crucial to escape the evil of the Red Death. The tone is also threatening from the death with deleriousness from the rich who want to escape. Like most works of Poe, the tone is very dark and suspencial from the danger of death attacking the ones who want to hold on to purity

What does the mysterious guest symbolize in the masque of the red death?

Asked by Wiki User

The clock in the "Masque of the Red Death" symbolizes the final judgement. When everyones life comes to an end, the clock stops.

The clock indicates it is time to use your brain and come up with your own interpretations of a story! Writers, certainly Poe for one if my own interpretations have any merit, do not write with all the answers blueprinted. The art in a well written story is the presentation of a medium that the reader can participate in developing for him/her self satisfaction and enlightenment. If you insist on something with all the answers included, stick to math and basic science. And accounting might be a good profession to consider- no offense to accountants meant.

What is wrong with salad fingers?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

-sigh- I've heard this and asked this to myself so many times, but never got a clear answer. There are a ton of theories to why Salad Fingers is the way he is. I'm assuming that within all of them, he has to have some sort of mental illness, like schizophrenia and/or multiple personality disorder. I'll share a couple of my theories with you.

There is one theory that his schizophrenia is so bad that he is hallucinating most of his life, the objects around him, the world he lives in, and pretty much everything.

The theory I believe in, and what most SF fans believe is that the Great War as he calls it, has pretty much created a wasteland out of his home and has messed with his head, causing him multiple mental illnesses.
