The Tell-Tale Heart by Edgar Allan Poe
An unreliable narrator fixates on an old man’s unsettling eye, meticulously plotting and executing his murder before hiding the dismembered body beneath the floorboards. When the police arrive to investigate, the narrator is tormented by the sound of a beating heart that grows unbearably loud, and his mounting guilt and paranoia drive him to confess.
