Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The narrator had to ride on horseback to get to house, which initiates the house was

located far from the ordinary world. The narrator also implied he was travelling “alone”,

enhancing the realms of the absence of people. In the text, “-- but with the first glimpse

of the building, a sense of insufferable gloom pervaded my spirit.” (para 1, pg 13). The

evidence endured the essence of the house putting the narrator in a despicable mood he

was unfamiliar to.
