Which excerpt from "The Adventure of the Mysterious Picture" conveys the eerie tone of the passage?
Answer
A
The uneasiness of my position made my slumber troubled, and laid me at the mercy of all kinds of wild and fearful dreams.
B
I was hag-ridden by a fat saddle of mutton; a plum pudding weighed like lead upon my conscience; the merry thought of a capon filled me with horrible suggestions.
C
As I heard the wind moan among the trees, I caught a reflection of this accursed visage in the pane of glass, as though it were staring through the window at me.
D
I determined to force myself not to look at the painting but to undress quickly and get into bed.
