The Tell-Tale Heart Synopsis: A young man plans and commits the "perfect crime in comfortless surroundings." When a detective stops by on a quite different matter, it becomes apparent that the young man has little to fear. The only trouble is he can't stop the pounding of the dead man's heart. Why can't the detective hear it? As the pounding grows louder and the tension increases, the audience realizes that they are watching the very madness of a murderer.
