The climax of "The Cask of Amontillado" comes when Montresor walls Fortunato up in a niche in the wall of the catacombs. Fortunato's drunkeness is beginning to wear off, and he realizes Montresor's intent. When he moans, he is no longer in a drunken stupor, but acknowledging his fate. As Montresor places the last brick in the wall, he thrusts a torch behind the wall and the only response was the jingling of bells from Fortunato's costume. At this point, Fortunato is dead (possibly from a heart attack from the shock), and there is no going back for Montresor.
