The Cask of Amontillado Fallout 4 reference

In the lower regions of The Castle, you can find a few bottle of wine, some of which are called “Amotillado Bottle.” Across from this, is a skeleton hidden behind a brick wall. This is a reference to a famous short story called the Cask of Amontillado by Edgar Allan Poe. In which a man imprisons someone in a wine cellar by building a brick containment for him, after drinking some Amontillado.

Poe was a native Bostonian, so this reference is not completely surprising.
