The Caretaker

==Summary==
The Caretaker is the unnamed protagonist of the short story The Tell-Tale Heart. The story never specifies their gender, but most assume the character is male. The Caretaker is telling the reader, why he isn’t insane (though by admitting to murder, he clearly is). They recall why they murdered the old man they took care of, which was because he had an “evil vulture eye”. They loved the old man, but the eye was too much. So after nights of watching the man sleep, they killed him. The Caretaker expertly took care of the body, dismantling it and hiding it beneath the floor. The police arrived after being told of a scream, and while the Caretaker was calm at first, he freaked out when he began to hear what he says was the beating of the old man’s heart.
