After the narrator finally answers the door he  "Soon again [hears] a tapping somewhat louder than before"(Poe 32) The growth in volume represents the increasing tension in the scene, as well as the chaos overtaking the narrators' mind.

At the end of the story "[He] shrieked" (Poe 97) as he began to consider the Raven to be an evil omen and possibly the devil himself. This is the climactic and dark end that was being built up through the entire story.
