Montressor es tan buen actor, que su buen amigo Fortunato no se da cuenta ni por un momento de lo que hay realmente tras su fachada de amabilidad y cortesía.Aparte de los juegos de palabras que el autor hace con los nombres de los personajes que en realidad representan los dos lados de una moneda. (Montressor – mi tesoro) (Fortunato – afortunado), se produce una constante antítesis entre ellos, mientras Montressor va con máscara negra y atuendo de caballero, Fortunato está vestido a la usanza de la locura del carnaval como un bufón. Mientras el primero está completamente sobrio, el segundo está totalmente ebrio.
