The simile "the curtain was as black as death" can be found in Edgar Allan Poe's short story "The Masque of the Red Death." This vivid imagery emphasizes the darkness and foreboding atmosphere that pervades the story, reflecting themes of mortality and the inevitability of death. It captures the reader's attention and sets the tone for the eerie events that unfold.
