Answer:

The excerpt presented allows readers to approach a “forbidden door".

Explanation:

In "Danse Macabre", Stephen King describes how society influences the horror genre. Be it in books, comics, films, etc. He explores the history of the genre and how real life situations are the consequence of that history.

In this case, King is pointing us to a "forbidden door".

"(...) he peered into the darkness."

"(...) he could resolve this mystery. He swung his legs to the floor with conviction."

The character is going into the darnkess to solve that mistery. He is going to cross that "forbidden door".

The answer is B: To convince Americans that the war was worth continuing

His main purpose was to give American encouraging words to continue the war, he stated "It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced" and "....that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
