Edgar Allan Poe utilizes the technique of dramatic irony in “The Cask of Amontillado” to build tension in the story. Dramatic irony occurs when the audience knows more information about a situation than a character. The three examples of dramatic irony are Montressor knowing of Fortunado’s hatred of the catacombs, his refusal to drink, and his dislike of being alone.
