    The idea that "The Fall of the House of Usher" is in part an investigation into sexual motivation and sexual guilt complexes has often been hinted at but never critically pursued as the dominant theme in the tale. But such a reading is at least prepared for in important essays by D. H. Lawrence and Allen Tate which make the essential recognition that "The Fall of the House of Usher" is a "love" story (1). Lawrence and Tate, however, mistakenly attempt to purge the love concerned of all physical meaning.

Suddenly, a low sound seems to ring through each of our ears, a moaning howl that I heard that I heard on the moor that afternoon with Stapleton. Sir Henry keeps questioning the sound and wondering what the locals say about that sound, but I try to change the subject, finally admitting that it is the howl of the Hound of the Baskervilles.

In an attempt to murder Sir Charles, Stapleton pretends to be a single, lonely man, falling in love with Mrs. Laura Lyons, a friend of Sir Charles. He therefore acquires complete influence over Lyons, who is at his beck and call, and therefore lures out Sir Charles to be killed by an enormous hound, although this was completely unknown to Lyons, showing that men were seemingly hiding things from women.

At first a reader may wonder why the hound even in the book? Only when the hounds symbolism is revealed is the question answered. In the story the Hound acts like the enforcer of the no book law that has been enforced for many generations. When more people started to be on the earth they made it so all the authors had to write the same books so people would read them. However because all the books were the same and boring people stopped reading altogether. The hound is the same way because the hound is society. The hound scares people into acting just like today's society teaches people to act and look a certain way. Montag is affected by this because while he is on his journey of enlightenment the hound just like society tries to change him.

The hound is the punishment and result of not following the rules. This is one of the government's way of controlling the citizens. However, the government also uses the hound as their own protection.
