The thought of someone being able to see into your soul, see all your intentions is a frightening thing. The narrator's fear of the old man knowing everything about him would be the driving force that leads him to kill. Yet, even after the eye is destroyed, the narrator continues to hear the old man's heart beating.

Explanation:

Many of Edgar Allan Poe’s works include obsessed narrators who are plagued by their unconscious in order to discover their true selves. Carl Jung declares that people wear a persona to present to the world that hides their true self from society, and even from themselves; “the persona is that which in reality one is not, but which oneself as well as others think one is” (Jung, “Concerning Rebirth,” 221). When one’s persona is in conflict with one’s inner self, tension can arise, and Jung declares that the unconscious can force the individual to come face to face with one’s true self, revealing the falseness of the persona that he or she wrongly identified with.
