The "Red Death" had long devastated the country. No pestilence had ever been so fatal, or so hideous. Blood was its Avatar and its seal-the redness and the horror of blood. There were sharp pains, and sudden dizziness, and then profuse bleeding at the pores, with dissolution. The scarlet stains upon the body and especially upon the face of the victim, were the pest ban which shut him out from the aid and from the sympathy of his fellow-men. And the whole seizure, progress and termination of the disease, were the incidents of half an hour. The Prosperous Prince and his court are indifferent to the sufferings of the general population; they intend to await the end of the plague in the luxury and safety behind the walls of their shelter, having welded the closed doors. One night, after six months of isolation, Prospero has a masked ball to entertain his guests in seven colorful rooms of the abbey. Each of the first six rooms is decorated and illuminated by braziers placed just in front of the windows, giving a specific color: blue, purple, green, orange, white and violet. The last room is decorated in black and is illuminated by a scarlet light, "a dark color of blood." Due to this cooling pair of colors, very few guests are brave enough to venture into the seventh room. The same room is the location of a large ebony clock that ominously chimes every hour, in which everyone stops talking or dancing, and the orchestra stops playing. Once the clock stops ticking, the masquerade immediately resumes. At the ringing of midnight, the revelers and Prospero notice, among the audience, a figure in a dark suit, spattered with blood, resembling a shroud. The figure's mask resembles the rigid face of a corpse and exhibits the features of the Red Death. Seriously enraged, Prospero asks to be immediately unmasked to learn the identity of the mysterious guest. The guests, too terrified to get close to the figure, let him pass through the six chambers. The prince pursues him with a dagger while the mysterious guest crosses the halls without anyone blocking his way, until he reaches the seventh room.

"The Masque of the Red Death", originally published as "The Mask of the Red Death: A Fantasy", is an 1842 short story by American writer Edgar Allan Poe. The story follows Prince Prospero's attempts to avoid a dangerous plague, known as the Red Death, by hiding in his abbey. He, along with many other wealthy nobles, hosts a masquerade ballwithin seven rooms of the abbey, each decorated with a different color. In the midst of their revelry, a mysterious figure disguised as a Red Death victim enters and makes his way through each of the rooms. Prospero dies after confronting this stranger, whose "costume" proves to contain nothing tangible inside it; the guests also die in turn. Poe's story follows many traditions of Gothic fiction and is often analyzed as an allegory about the inevitability of death, though some critics advise against an allegorical reading. Many different interpretations have been presented, as well as attempts to identify the true nature of the titular disease. The story was first published in May 1842 in Graham's Magazineand has since been adapted in many different forms, including a 1964 film starring Vincent Price.

Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-The Mask of the Red Death (The Masque of the Red Death) is a horror account of the American writer Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849), published in May 1842 in the Graham's Magazine. It is an essentially gothic story about the inevitable death. The story takes place in an unknown kingdom, whose inhabitants die one after another because of a terrible epidemic, which they call Red Death. This name is explained by the large amount of blood that patients lose, which has led many to consider that The Mask of Red Death is, in fact, a vampire story, although at no time talk about them. This name is explained by the large amount of blood that patients lose, which has led many to consider The Mask of Red Death as a vampire story, although at no time talk about them.Amidst the chaos appears the figure of Prince Prospero, who decides to quarantine the most notable people in the kingdom to isolate them from the terrible scourge that ravages the population. In that refuge, a kind of underground palace that recalls the catacombs of an old abbey, thunderous celebrations are organized that silence the howls of pain that come from the village.One day, Prince Prospero resolves to give a mask dance. The party is divided into different sections or bedrooms; each of them with a particular color. At the end of a long corridor is the black hall, which nobody dares to enter.Prospero discovers then that one of the guests wears the mask of a skull, as if he wanted to represent the Red Death. Indignant, he pursues him through the halls, until he reaches the mysterious black hall where the true identity of the man in the mask will be revealed.

The story takes place at the castellated abbey of the "happy and dauntless and sagacious" Prince Prospero. Prospero and one thousand other nobles have taken refuge in this walled abbey to escape the Red Death, a terrible plague with gruesome symptoms that has swept over the land. Victims are overcome by "sharp pains," "sudden dizziness," and sweat blood. The plague is said to kill within half an hour. Prospero and his court are indifferent to the sufferings of the population at large. They intend to await the end of the plague in luxury and safety behind the walls of their secure refuge, having welded the doors shut.One night, Prospero holds a masquerade ball to entertain his guests in six colored rooms of the abbey. Each of the first six rooms is decorated and illuminated in a specific color: blue, purple, green, orange, white, and violet. The last room is decorated in black and is illuminated by a scarlet light, "a deep blood color". Because of this chilling pairing of colors, very few guests are brave enough to venture into the seventh room. The same room is the location of a large ebony clock that ominously clangs at each hour, upon which everyone stops talking or dancing and the orchestra stops playing. Once the chiming stops, everyone immediately resumes the masquerade.L'histoire se situe dans une abbaye fortifiée, dans laquelle le prince Prospero s'est enfermé, avec mille de ses courtisans, afin de fuir l'épidémie foudroyante de Mort Rouge, terrible fléau qui frappe le pays. Indifférent aux malheurs des populations frappées par la maladie, ils mènent alors une vie parsemée de vices et de plaisirs en toute sécurité derrière les murs de l'abbaye.Une nuit, Prospero organise un bal masqué dans sept pièces de l'abbaye, décorées et illuminée chacune d'une couleur différente : bleu, pourpre, vert, orange, blanc, violet. La dernière est tapissée de noir et éclairée par une lumière rouge sang. Elle inspire une si grande crainte aux invités que rares sont ceux qui osent s'y aventurer. Il s'y trouve une grande horloge d'ébène qui sonne sinistrement à chaque heure; alors, chacun arrête de parler et l'orchestre cesse de jouer.Durant la soirée, Prospero remarque une figure dans une robe qui ressemble à un linceul, avec un masque semblable au crâne dépeignant une victime de la Mort Rouge. Se sentant gravement insulté, Prospero exige qu'on lui donne l'identité de l'invité mystérieux et ordonne également que l'on s'empare de l'individu. Mais, comme nul n'ose obéir, il tire un poignard et le poursuit à travers les sept pièces. Quand il arrive dans la septième pièce, le mystérieux personnage se retourne et fait face à Prospero, qui s'effondre, mort. Les courtisans, horrifiés et furieux, se jettent sur l'inconnu et lui arrachent son masque, mais découvrent que le costume est vide. Tous comprennent qu'il s'agit de la Mort Rouge elle-même et ils meurent les uns après les autres. Les sols des chambres sont remplis de sang et l'horloge s'arrête de sonner.
