he story. In "The Cask of Amontillado," some examples of imagery to enhancemood are, this particular one is also used to boost the setting but I think that it applies to both. "It was about dusk, one eveningduring the supreme madness of the carnival season" "for he had been drinking," that is an example of foreshadowing whichcreates an eerie sort of mood. "The succession of loud and shrill screams, bursting suddenly from the throat" Establishes a veryscary mood. Imagery was a key factor in "The Raven." Without it would have been a senseless poem with no fright in it. Theimagery made you image everything going on even with limited description by Poe. One Example is "there came a tapping, as ofsomeone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door." One of Poe's greatest uses of imagery was to develop suspense. If youimage what is going on it makes you care more about what is going to happen. Through out both stories Poe uses imagery to makeyou interested in the story. Imagery to build suspense makes the story better. In conclusion, Poe used imagery to enhance hisstories. They were great stories but with imagery they were even better. Imagery gets you into the story and it makes you careabout the outcome of the climax. Besides rhyming, imagery was definitely one of Poe's more powerful writing tools....
