I have to do an assignment on a story called “The Premature Burial.” I don’t need anyone to write the paragraph for me, I just need the theme and a few details about it relating to the theme and I can put the rest together. It’s just one paragraph so I don’t need much.
DO NOT add a fake answer or something that doesn’t make sense or relate or I will report. I can’t stand that.

The theme, simply put, is fear and its effect on one's mind - particularly a fear of the unknown.

Explanation:

"The Premature Burial" is a short story about one man's extreme fear of being buried alive.  He struggles from an internal conflict (him vs. his mind), as he obsessively imagines himself being buried alive over and over.  It is worth noting that the narrator frequently suffers from catalepsy (loss of sensation and consciousness similar to death) hence, fearing a cataleptic state will make others believe he is dead.
