Harper Lee creates a sense of mystery surrounding Boo Radley by elaborating on the ominous atmosphere around his home, describing the rumors concerning Boo Radley, and never physically depicting Boo until the end of the novel. Much of the information regarding Boo comes from secondhand sources, which distances his character and adds to the mystery surrounding him
