The Tell-Tale Heart
By Edgar Allan Poe
Edgar Allan Poe
1809-1849
The name ‘death-watch beetle’ comes from the tapping sound, which can be heard in warm weather between March and June,
made by beetles banging their heads against the walls of the tunnels to attract mates. This insect is often found in churches
hence the association with death reflected in its name.
