Answer:
Poe's description allows the narrative to be very suspenseful and provide a feeling of discomfort and displacement in the reader. In addition, Poe makes the reader realize how insecure and uncertain the narrator is about where he is located.
Explanation:
"The Pit and the Pendulum," is a short story written by Edgar Alan Poe. This is a suspense story where the narrator / protagonist is arrested by the inquisition and subjected to physical and psychological torture in a totally unknown and insecure environment.
With the line "I proceeded for many paces; but still all was blackness and vacancy,"
