Summary

"La Máscara de la Muerte Roja" de Edgar Allan Poe es una escalofriante historia ambientada en un reino ficticio asolado por una plaga mortal conocida como la Muerte Roja. El príncipe Próspero, junto con un selecto grupo de nobles, se retira a su apartada abadía para evitar el contagio. Dentro de la abadía, Prospero organiza un lujoso baile de máscaras, donde los invitados se deleitan con la decadencia y el libertinaje. Sin embargo, en medio de las festividades, aparece una figura misteriosa vestida con una túnica manchada de sangre, que simboliza la inevitabilidad de la muerte. A pesar de sus intentos de escapar, la Muerte Roja se cobra a todos los que asisten al baile, lo que ilustra la inutilidad de la riqueza y el poder frente a la mortalidad. El cuento de Poe es una alegoría inquietante que explora temas de mortalidad, arrogancia y la inevitabilidad de la muerte, dejando a los lectores con una sensación persistente de temor y contemplación existencial.
