The Tell-Tale Heart

After receiving our initial inspiration from a nightmare, we will draw further inspiration from a recently re-read classic, The Tell-Tale Heart by legendary author Edgar Allen Poe. The story itself is predetermined from the dream, but we really like the use of the first person point-of-view and the present tense. Plus, spoiler alert, they are both horror stories. Furthermore, we find that once we start reading the classic we can't stop, and that is definitely an effect that we would also like to achieve.
