1. Both stories involve corpses being walled up.

2. Both stories involve characters whose sanity changes drastically over the course of the story.

3. Both stories' narrators attribute their tenuous sanity to something else.

4. The narrators in both stories are so self-confident that they cause their own undoing in the end.

5. Both narrators attempt to tenuously defend their action
