In the prologue, the ravens tell the audience that Poe wrote "bloodcurdling tales" about "murder, morgues, gargoyles, and graveyards."


How does this language create suspense?

The words rhyme and the audience will wonder about them.

The audience gets a clue that the story they will be hearing is spooky and strange; that it will most likely involve a mystery or death.

The words create a sense of fear and the audience knows that they might be scared.

Ravens are creepy, dark birds, so the audience will be on the edge of their seat to hear more from them.
