Black Plague.
The color red in the The Masque of the Red Death may represent several things such as Cholera, the bubonic plague, or Tb. Cholera and the bubonic plague were big sicknesses in the setting where The Masque of the Red Death took place. And Tb is what the three most important in Poe's life died of. And since many of his stories take place of things that happened in his life this makes perfect sense. And Tb does cause the release of blood.
The "Red Death" refers to a fictional plague from Edgar Allan Poe's short story "The Masque of the Red Death," not a historical event. However, the term may be confused with the bubonic plague, also known as the Black Death, which did kill an estimated one-third of Europe's population in the 14th century. This devastating pandemic resulted in significant social, economic, and cultural changes across the continent.
There's a plague that kills everyone.

Most people recognize Poe by his famous poem, "The Raven". Others may have read one of his more popular dark and creepy tales like, "The Fall of the House of Usher" or "The Tell-tale Heart". Poe wrote quite a few gothic stories about murder, revenge, torture, the plague, being buried alive, and insanity. Many modern books and movies have "borrowed" ideas from Poe. Some of Poe's stories were not well accepted in his day because people were just not ready for them- they were too scary.
