Explanation:

                In my opinion Poe's use of a first person narrator made "The Black Cat" much more interesting to read. To me it's more interesting because when the first person point of view is used it gives the  illusion that you're actually there and apart of the story experiencing what the protagonist is experiencing.  In this story, you get the chance to see through the eyes of a mad man and walk in his shoes. Certain scenes and details can be seen in a more vivid image in your mind when you use first person, while it also comes with its downsides. For example, in first person you never really know what's going to happen next where as with third person omniscient you get the chance to be all seeing and all knowing. An example of a scene which was better experienced in first person to experience was when he started to mistreat his pets after he got a drinking problem, not only is it interesting to see from the eyes of an alcoholic and a not so good but more gruesome experience would be when he cut out one of Pluto's eyes. Another scene that would've seemed nice to experience would be when he found a new black cat that reminded him of Pluto. It would be nice to feel and know what emotions he was feeling first hand when he saw that cat. And lastly, the first person point of view makes the scene of him axing his wife and hiding her away way more interesting, because people never experience something like that.
