A Dark and Creepy Ride into Poe's Mind...

Please ask 1-3 authentic discussion questions regarding Poe's "Fall of the House of Usher." Probe deeply inside Poe's twisted mind...question the text's symbols, mood, themes, characters, and secrets. Be sure to read the other posts before asking your question in order to avoid repeating others' observations. Remember that only half of the class is required to post these questions, but the rest of the class is welcome to do so as well.

Your questions are due by 9 pm tonight (Monday, November 28).

Why is Usher so reluctant to allow the doctors to examine his sister's corpse? Usher did nothing but care for his sister during life; why does she instill such fear, dread, and distress in Usher after her death?
