Edgar Allen Poe's The Cask of Amontadillo is a story of revenge. A man named Montresor lures an old friend who unknowingly wronged him to sample his rare wine selection, located deep beneath his villa in old catecombs. He then chains the man to the walls and builds a wall to hide the man from any searchers.
Inspired by a legend Poe had heard while he was serving with the army in Boston.
