The Masque of the Red Death 红死病的面具（英文版）
The Masque of the Red Death, originally published as "The Mask of the Red Death", is a short story written by Edgar Allan Poe and first published in 1842. The story follows the "happy and dauntless and sagacious" Prince Prospero's attempts to avoid a dangerous plague known as the Red Death by hiding in his castellated abbey. He, along with many other wealthy nobles, has a masquerade ball within seven rooms of his abbey, each decorated with a different color. In the midst of their revelry, a mysterious figure enters and makes his way through each of the rooms. When Prospero confronts this stranger, he falls dead.
