Poe uses diction to explain the setting and give readers a sense of dread. He uses the words "damp," "white web-work," and "niter" and "walls of piled bones, with casks and puncheons" this imagery makes you feel the fear that clutches the victim's heart. It also forces you to imagine what you would do in such an irreversible and fatal situation.

dark, cold and mysterious so quiet it is scary, makes it possible to imagine you are there.
(TS) Poe uses --- diction to explain the
setting and give readers a sense of dread. … To further instill dread and a feeling that the vaults, the large grave has not been disturbed by activity, Poe uses the words “damp,” “white web-work,” and “niter,” and “walls of piled bones, with casks and puncheons.”
(D/Ex) We hear the “furious vibrations of the
chains” (78) and the “low moaning cry” (78) that come from the fearful Fortunato, deep in the catacombs. Not only does this imagery make you feel the fear that clutches the victim’s heart, but it also forces you to imagine what you would do in such an irreversible and fatal situation. Fortunato knows he is on his way to death. He lets out a “low moaning cry” ( ) and is frozen by the “furious vibrations of the chain” (#).
[It ? what’s it…be specific] makes you feel
as if you were the one watching your life come to an end, hearing and seeing the repeated sounds of death as it gets darker and darker.
The cold catacombs make Fortunato cough.
The rats running across the walls of the catacombs make it creepier. (and…now, conclude the impact of the setting)
