The rising action in the story is that the party is getting under way and everyone is forgetting about the world outside the castle that is suffering from the Red Death. The only reminder is when the ebony clock chimes ominously every hour.
The falling action is when the party goers realize that the uninvited guest who appears at midnight is in fact the Red Death himself and they all begin to die.
The resolution of the story is that no one can escape death no matter how fiercely they try to ignore it. The party goers tried to shut death out, but death will always find a way in when the time is right.
