I am writing a paper on Edgar Allan Poe's "Masque of the Red Death" and how death is inescapable. What is a good essay title? My teacher wants a creative one

One of Edgar Allan Poe’s most enduring themes was the inescapability of death and the “Masque of the Red Death” is a great example of that theme and of the mystery elements in Poe’s gothic fiction. Some titles for an essay about it could be:

1. Prospero Parties While the Poor Perish: If Death is Inescapable, Is It Immoral for Prospero to Party Until Death Comes for Him?
2. Mortality Moral: What Poe Has to Say About the Inevitability of Death
3. Didacticism and Death: Examining the Masque of the Red Death Through a Symbolic Lens
4. The Pursuit of Emptiness: Does Chasing Life Lead to Death?
5. Stalking Death: Is Prospero Pursuing Death in Poe’s “Masque of the Red Death”?
6. The Futility of Flight: The Inescapable Nature of Death
7. The Empty Illusion of Fear
8. The Blood Is the Life…and Also the Death
9. Valiant Hero or Cowering Weakling: The Opposing Views of Prospero in Poe’s “Masque of the Red Death”
10. Death in Disguise
