Tieck's 'The Bride of the Grave' is one of his best-remembered tales, it is a meld of popular story and cautionary morality tale. As a morality tale it forewarns the reader that the sin, maybe pleasurable, however it can bring eternal negative repercussions. Walter is demonstrated as impetuous, thoughtless, and as a being who lives solely for his own pleasure, and the results of his uncontrolled personality traits are death and destruction for his vassals and for his children.
