Answer: C Vic buys a house for a great price, but he keeps hearing strange voices from the cellar.

Step-by-step explanation:

The scenery in Gothic Literature is dark and feels like something mysterious and fearful is happening or about to happen. There is an air of suspense and a melodramatic plot that is aimed at keeping the reader guessing what will happen next.

One of the best examples of Gothic literature is a house that seems fine but houses a secret that threatens the life or wellbeing of the owners who are most times new. This is not unlike the scenario described in option C so option C is correct.
